I Know,I know!! Well, actually I don't know much, but Jon and the crew are/were here in Las Vegas at the American Osteopathic Associations annual convention. I hung around the booth as much as I could to watch what he was doing with it as he showed it to potential customers. I wasn't sure there would be any significant (or should I say obvious) changes except for the SEQUEL database. I didn't take any notes and I didn't see enough things repeatedly to memorize what I was seeing. But I DID SEE SEVERAL THINGS THAT LOOKED REALLY COOL. I am not trying to be clever about this, I just have sensory overload from the last three days. (And a little anti-histamine fog!)
I guess the important thing is it was up and running all the time at the show without a glitch and they are (I believe) Alpha testing very carefully on some sites to make sure nothing goes wrong when you are running with a big data base. He offered to include me in the testing, but I declined because I feel I have such limited skills that any little installation glitch would distract his crew from getting onto the Beta test. I will definitely be glad to get in on that as I believe it will open our quest labs faster. It looks good. He is feeling the heat to get the e-prescribing fixed right away and that is very close as well.
My guess is that the Sequel database will let the flood gates open a good bit and future updates will come in time to make us all happy.
