Hi Chris (and the list),

I am waiting with curiosity.
I have a premiére in 10 days from now.
If I am able to buy a 16 out & midi licence I will
buy it the same hour that it is out for sale.
I can then use the power of my system a lot better.

Keep up the good work.
I have been waiting for this.

Erik
