You'd rather click between windows and retype commands? Fine, you can run Benchmark in that manner as well. What do you mean by "patch a PCware integrated program "? Is this a "flame"? Let's be constructive here, and think with our minds, not our wallets. (I know how you feel, as I spent hundreds of dollars on TDI M2; the money is gone, but new knowledge exists. Benchmark is superior. Fact. Now I have even less money, but even greater knowledge. IF M2Amiga were superior, I'd be "more poorer"...) "Wouldn't you rather: F2,F3,F4 (to compile, link and run) Instead of: Wave the mouse around, click to this window, type a command, wave the mouse around, click to that window, type a command, ... ????" Those of us who have used both "environments" can attest to the utility of the integrated method. Just because the Amiga is multitasking, does not mean that we should force the user to multitask. If a simpler and more efficient method works, that is the best method. John
