I also think the updates are awesome. Great work on the windows patch! I
will wait patiently for the linux, doesn't matter to me if they get released
two weeks apart or at the same time, even though it was planned for a dual
release. Crap happens. But they did a wonderful job trying to get it to us
before the Holidays and this I commend them on!
