- No, I don't think it is a religious issue, it is the issue that
- PowerSnap instantly freezes my machine while Snap has always
- worked flawlessly. (under 2.04) Other people have reported
- exactly the reverse. I would rather use PowerSnap because it is
- actively supported whereas the author of Snap apparently has
- abandoned the Amiga and not left the source code with anyone.

- Of course. I'm really looking forward to being able to snap
- things that are not even on the screen. It will be so handy when
- I can just cut and paste from a book over on my shelf without
- even opening it. The digitizer industry is doomed.
