Thanks for bringing some reality to the debate (and hopefully finishing it), Sheelagh. Surely we are all here to do our best to upload as much accurate information as possible. Does it really matter what we use to provide our data? Peter and Ian have provided two methods, without reward, only to have (too) many enter into unnecessary comparisons. Use which ever you prefer and get back to what we are here for.

The two men who developed these programmes did so to help us. They put in many many hours of work, and then have put them up for free use. To hear people picking them to pieces in the way that they have over the last few day must be extremely disheartening. As such if this discussion is really necessary it should be on the discuss list, but even then I don't see any advantage in discussing them - as Norma says try them both a use which one you prefer. Now lets get back to transcribing - there are two more rebuilds before Christmas. Lets see if we can hit the 25 million mark by then :-) Sheelagh ----- Original Message ----- From: "norma maxwell" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, October 12, 2001 4:46 PM Subject: SpeedBMD v WinBMD > Personally I find both are extremely good, on balance I prefer to use WinBMD, but that's me. Surely this is another case of "horses for courses" i.e. what suits one wont suit another. So, try both and then use the one you prefer. > > Norma Maxwell > > > ==== FreeBMD-Admins Mailing List ==== > Want to help FreeBMD? > Go to http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/Signup.html to find out how. > > ============================== > Visit Ancestry.com for a FREE 14-Day Trial and enjoy access to the #1 > Source for Family History Online.
