Hi Bert,
I am replying to the board, not as a PM, because I think this is of general interest.
No offense whatsoever taken from your comments, you can be a bit blunt at times, but you speak the truth, and have demonstrated an unbelievable willingness and ability to help. Thank you.
Two comments to your reply.
First, from a corporate point of view, all of the above makes perfect sense. Given that, a comment in the email from AC asking that info not be shared etc would have been most helpful.
Secondly, from the perspective of a busy practicing physician, I am extremely reluctant to be a beta tester. August 1 of this year is inedlibly imprinted in my brain as one of the worst professional days in recent memory. We had just upgraded to v6.0.09 over the weekend, had a very busy morning scheduled, found a close to nonfunctional AC, and tech supports answer was "Roll back, and lose this mornings data". With about 12 computers, the rollback would probably have taken 3 hours.
So I am really really reluctant to risk going through that again. Hence my desire to see if anyone else had actually done the 6.1.1 upgrade, and what their results were.
I did proceed with 6.1.1 last night, wanting to start using this on a Friday, so I would have the weekend to recover, should there be a disaster.
My suggestion is that AC have a mechanism to IMMEDIATELY alert beta testers (or prospective beta testers) of issues that are reported.
Thanks again. Gene
