One of the forum stickies (and the most noticeable, being at the bottom of the group) says "Zebra gets out of tune!!!". Now I know why Zebra gets out of tune, and the sticky post explains it in no uncertain terms, but I can't count the number of times I have come to this forum, and immediately get a negative feeling upon reading that thread title. Sometimes I remember why it gets out of tune, and other times I just don't think about it (need coffee perhaps) beyond the knee-jerk reaction of "Great, it has bugs..." Maybe it's not that big a deal, but if I was in charge of marketing, that would not be the first thing my potential customers would see. How about "Unregistered Zebra gets out of tune!!!"

Good idea!
I actually wanted to write a FAQ soon... some issues come up quite often. Like the inevitable daily request for Fish on IntelMacs.

Unregistered Zebra gets out of tune is a good idea!
i never thought how it could look to others that don't know the ZEBRA demo limitations

Also, referencing an older thread, I'd love to see a video tutorial on Z2 come out. Like the one for MFM2.

Well, the problem is that many people encounter the demo mode and think it's a bug. So the "bug nature" of the limitation must be most prominent in order to have the startled people look at it first.SuperFly76 wrote:Or just call it "Zebra 2 demo limitations - goes out of tune after X minutes" I don't remember the actual time in minutes, thus the X in my phrase.
Actually, there was hardly any support email or further "bugfix request" ever since I have posted that topic... so I guess it works
