Okay, since I was the one to first bash ZS on this thread (and many
others...:-), I figure I gotta respond. My main complaint about them is
that they're impossible to tune unless you have very extensive knowledge
and expiernce. Also, I've heard many stories of them failing, more so than
ZSs holdin up for many years straight. Well, that's some more of my two
cents.
Thanks for reading.
