yep its the best software around... but it needs improving.

i found it to be very unstable on both my PC's (windows XP) when i used it on my MO USB LCD a few weeks ago.

Can you get a cable to connect it to the internal USB headers..?
this would save having to run the cable out the box :)

I'm still waiting for someone to come out with an LCD which is more than 4 lines... I don't mind an unit using up two of my 5.25" bays in my Lian Li. :D

It's a shame you can't get nice LCD's to fit 3 1/2 bays, 'cos everybody's got at least 1 free bay....
