Run them parallel until all bugs are fixed.

Absolutely we should, but there's a thousand things that we should, but are not doing. I think their concern is probably that you'll rush into a plane during a CLE tour of the airport 30 minute turn from C2 to D-17XXX (<--- that was for McKnight) and allow yourself to be so rushed that forget all the other safeguards that are in place. I don't have any personal experience/info with this exact thing, but I'd be willing to bet that it's happened.

Yeah that's neat but it doesn't work. I did everything the instructions said. I still get the ccs logo. Not the express logo. everything else looks the same too. When I right click my monkey (insert joke here) it says I can manage user scripts but right under that it says no scripts installed. If I click manage it says ccs customizer. Do I have a bad monkey? Or should you have charged the company that billion?

I'll have to go back and try this again. The whole browser is jacked up. It won't even let me log into this board. I have to use IE to get in.
