Hi
I do think this is rather odd. While one expects such a program for an operating system, to have a certification program for "ordinary" software that runs under Windows seems very strange. The idea of writing an application in an operating system is that it works with anything certified by the operating system's authors (Microsoft). I hope this doesn't become an excuse not to support the software. "Oh, you are running an Intel with ATI ... so sorry, we think the crashes are because you're not running our recommended XYZ with ABC ..., try replace the PC and then we'll look into the 'file not found' error."
Thanks
Michael

I think it is a great idea, the issue isn't the operating system or MS standards, it is providing a computer optimized for what we do, display, using SSP. That is not something that either Dell or Jimbob the computer guy necessarily does. I would rather spend the money on PC that is designed and dedicated to providing the best display our church can afford, rather than get a pc with a bunch of garbage I don't need. Just my 2 cents.
