Re: WWP vs. mif2go

[Bill Briggs <web@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thomas,

I have no experience with WWP, but I do with MIF2GO, and I can 
corroborate Jeremy's comments. In fact I'll go one further. On the 
tech support side MIF2GO has no peer that I'm aware of in the 
software arena. The speed and quality of the responses is truly 
astonishing. The quality of the output is also very good.
