Well, I have TMG4 and 5 and use both. I use GedHTree because of the nice
web graphics. I use Second Site because TMG has no quality web site
generation features. I use Legacy because I'm interested in their reports
(just experimenting at present). I also use UFT and ROOTS III but only
because at times I need to help others who use those programs.

BUT more to the point, in the survey RUG takes each year, seventy percent
(70%) of the reporting members reported having a secondary genealogy
program - and most of these responded early last year before TMG5 came
out. Admittedly, I don't recall if we asked if they *used* a secondary
program, and the questionnaire is down at the moment being revised for this
new year. You can see the results of the survey by going to the RUG web
site http://www.rootsusers.org.
