Well sure... If they're like the Best Buy Geek Squad, you'll be spending more $$$ on having them come out on a regular basis and showing you over and over and over and...

Yep - apparently with email even closed, I can run the recording portion of this software since it can't allocate enough free ram ON A 1 GB MACHINE! Crud. Everything closed, and what the hell is eating up 60% of the RAM on a 1 GB machine? Like, what the hell is it doing? Ughhh!

I think Visual Basic should be banned from the face of the Earth, along with it's bloated libraries. It's software for programmers that have no brains to program in something more efficient, like C or even Assembly!!!! It just ends up being bloated code compiled with massive libraries.

I watched a speed test the other day of a first generation Mac outrunning modern day PC's for common every day tasks! That is pretty sad. This is what you get with VB. Nice. Welcome to modern day programming.
