Good idea but it doesn't work for me since many of my cards that I
play with are also mint quality. it makes extra book keeping which
is a real headache when you are talking about 50,000 cards. and that
does not include any sets newer than tempest.

If I was good enough with XML, you could likely do it with an XSL
sheet.

Interesting thought. I am a hardware propeller head tho and not a
software propeller head :-) Will have to look into learning the XML
stuff as a backup plan while I wait for the developers to weigh in.

Ahhh now here I can make a meaninful reply :-). I would tend to
agree with you if both machines were equal in processor and memory
but the XP machine is a dual 733 with 500MB of ram while the 98
machine is of lesser power (can't remember off the top of my head)
and only has 256 of RAM. I suspect there may be some optimizaiton
that can be done for XP but it is running good on 98 so I am a happy
camper.

Thanks for the input :-)

Chers, RDJ
