I don't know that. In fact I couldn't even verify the original statement. The people that could, people working on new System software at Apple, are bound not to comment on future developments. My information came from a developer who has ongoing contact with such a person at Apple. I don't think it is appropriate for me to initiate a flood of email to DTS or other people at Apple (remember David Ramsey!) so, lets just say that the technique that Ed Edell proffered seems a likely route. --scott -- Scott Truesdell
