I agree with you on this:  I have downloaded a few of 'em, and they were
really lousy.  I even emailed him that.  He suggested I get all of them,
and then decide.  I didn't care for any one of 'em.

I did see a program switcher that rivaled SwitchIt, and while I never
actually used it, I've heard it was pretty good.  I heard something 
about the program not being intended for 1WSW...
