First off, JC, thanks so much for taking the time to create this and then being good enough to share it. That's really, really cool of you.

I'd just like to ask a question...in my case, we don't have to trash our prefs with any sort of regularity, and I'm wondering why so many of you seem to do it a lot. Is trashing prefs something that you do to troubleshoot PT? Is it just something you do when you have a system freeze? Is it something that is just good to do on a regular basis? Are there any disadvantages to doing it and/or doing it often? Can someone just write a tiny paragraph on why trashing prefs is a good thing and/or when you really need to do it?

Thanks again, JC. I don't know jack about writing apps, but I'm pretty sure you've spent some hours on this and it's really nice that you've shared your results with us...
