Chuck, what you say is true. But in my opinion using an unsupported 
device is a BAD idea. The horrendous accuracy problems just don't 
make it worth it. I've been telling people for years that if the 
device isn't supported (Mac or Windows) don't use it. This saves 
them--and me--a lot of headaches.
