I bought a couple cartons then heard they were going to send these letters out. I stopped buying immediately. That was a couple years ago. The reservation warned all of us that bought there and they had to turn over the names of everybody that did business with them.

Yes, but with some reservations sm
You have to be careful of two platforms that are actually Word clients, and you can't have two versions of the same software on your computer either.
I was working on Extext and found that I could not work with MTWorld and Extext. Extext has a DocQnet file or something like that which will interfere with SOME other Word clients. Inscribe and Extext were not a problem. Currently, I am working in Extext and MedRite. I managed to injure my company computer and it is not out of the shop yet. I had to work last weekend and I mean NOW. The techies installed Extext on the same computer as my MedRite and I have had absolutely no issues...as long as I reboot between sessions of one or the other. MedRite to Extext is okay, but not Extext to MedRite, if that makes sense.
MedRite and MTWorld, no problem. MedRite and Emdat Inscribe, no problem. Extext, if that is one of your platforms, is likely to be the problem if there is one.
Now, you CAN work on 2 computers and have only one monitor, one set of speakers, one mouse and one keyboard. You get something called a KVM. DO NOT buy a Belkin unless you like to splash out $70 every 3 months. The best price I found was newegg.com and I think I paid about $19 for mine. I bought the highest rated brand on there and it is USB too.
About KVMs...you can buy them that are PS/2, but please don't. They are phasing out PS/2 ports in computers and your ability to get PS/2 peripherals will diminish. Everything is going to USBs, so get a USB. You also cannot use a PS/2 to USB adapter with a KVM, you have to have all USBs. Might be a problem for you, but you know about this going in now. I learned the hard way, so I am sharing my mistake for your benefit!
KVMs mean far less desk clutter. Mine, you hit Control twice and you switch between computers. The emulation on this one is like 3 seconds, which means I don't wait for the switcharoo for very long. I can almost pop from one to the other with no lag time.
Reservations for seven o'clock
can't cook
I also love Shorthand and recommend without reservations. sm
Every once in a while I see people posting issues on other Expanders I just haven't experienced with Shorthand. Very stable and workable with the platforms I've used, and I find the ability to use symbols in abbreviations an extremely useful feature. I originally chose it for its very large storage capacity compared to others at that time and pretty much lucked out with the rest.
