that you wonder if it was a good idea after all? I was given a longarm quilter with Qbot. Yip -- the owner has loaned it to me to "babysit". I posted on this elsewhere. Now here's why I'm tired (NOT from quilting either). I've been working on trying to figure out how to quilt a simple box inside a box. I went to youtube and found a wonderful set of tutorials. The woman keeps mentioning that in the set up you identify the upper right corner, the lower right corner, the lower left corner and the upper left corner. Yeah, right..............took me 2 hours to figure out she's using a different VERSION of the Qbot!!!! OKAY!!!!!! I'll order the upgrade on payday - least I can do for getting to use this. SOOOOO, now I try to go in to the design side of the Qbot.....hmmmmmmm I keep getting a popup that says "Hasp Key not found (h0007)".....can't find a darn thing on that -- finally (2 hrs later) I discover I'm supposed to have a thing called a DONGLE!! A WHAT?????? Yip - a Dongle!!! Well, it wasn't with the stuff, so I called the owner to have him send it. It's actually a little purple thing that plugs into the USB port on the computer -- and it protects them from the wrong people using it....SHEESH!!! Well, in order to figure that little tidbit out I actually went to page 28 on the manual to find it!!! PAGE 28 STARTS the installation and registration part of the setup!!! DOUBLE SHEESH!!

Okay - I'm tired -- pancakes and ham steak for dinner.....

Hope you all had a better day!!!!
