RE: Re: xAP and Weather

["Paul Gale" <groups2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Do run the demo for a while though - I had WD (registered) running for
about a year and it made my HA PC pretty unreliable. I can't remember the
exact problems but there were some weird software failures and errors.
Since removing it, the PC has been 100% reliable again. Trouble is there
are such frequent updates to add new features etc and sometimes these break
old features.

Not saying it won't work well for you but best try the demo first :)

Paul.
