I recall someone doing an analysis of the Registry editor code back in 1997 and concluding that it was a bloated mess, with large chunks of code copied from some other program which were never used. The position today is that for some combination of installation and software update, possibly one of the Service Packs, I saw something like 100,000 registry updates tick past during a reboot. That has _got_ to be a serious maintentance problem whichever way you look at it. -- Paul Sture
