[chandler-users] Error starting up Intel|Leopard version

[Rob Stearn]

Thank you both for listening.
It's an interesting issue I had never thought of that AFP shares don't 
support file locking.

I'd like to put it out there that the response speed was awesome.
I'm something of a recent convert to Chandler, I'd heard about it, even 
read the book ;)
It's been a saviour for me, in a recent change of jobs, to staying afloat. 
I have a perfect triangle going of iPhone Quick Entry app > Hub > 
Chandler Desktop
When I moved to using a network account instead of my notebook I thought 
it was going to rock. I've moved back to the notebook now, a ThinkPad 
running Fedora 9, just to stay with Chandler.

Thanks again

Rob
