   I have a 10 node verison and it runs quite well.  I like Synchro too, but from   
   a visual standpoint it's hard to read and I like the PXTools editor.   
      
   It's very simplistic in the way it works... if you can drag drop point and   
   click you cna set things up pretty easy.   
      
   My only complaint is that the BBS section is relevant.  Webforums are big ...   
   there are plenty of PHPBB and SMF type forums.  If they would develop it with   
   some social media features and tool it into the community it was meant to be   
   it would bridge the gap between the young and the old users out there.   
      
   I run several large pages for the disabled community in Louisville and a   
   community page for my little town of Valley Station.  The VS page has over   
   250,000 users and 86% of them are "mobile" users.   
      
   People just don't use computers anymore... figure out a way to have a cell   
   phone interface to the BBS and BOOM you got something.  Most of the Cell-   
   Phoners will write a paragraph or to in response to a good post.
