Email me directly if you have any problems, I'm their main beta-tester - at
any rate, I find more bugs than anyone else. They are about to release a new
version (mostly bug fixes).

I set up a PSX Yahoo group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PulsonixUG which
you might care to look at. You could download my libraries which have got a
lot of useful stuff in them (from the Files area). The group isn't used very
much, probably because the product is so easy to use and bugs get fixed very
quickly. Contrast it with the support groups for other products.
