- I've just seen a whole load of stuff about this being discussed on a mailing
- list over here in the UK. Basically someone was debating whether to get the
- Desqview package or the Hummingbird Vista eXceed package. He's gone for the
- former. The major drawback to it is that it needs FTP Software's PC/TCP which
- tends to bump the price up. That's all I know.
