No worries - I'm working as hard as I can to make it worth the wait. The first alpha testers seem to really enjoy the new design.
I think I was having a bad day as I had just re-read a very negative review someone named "Switchblade McGillicutty" posted regarding my book on Amazon. In addition to calling me "insecure" because I have a PhD, he apparently thinks I'm soon going to retire in the Bahamas on the massive profits from my new book by pushing BeerSmith. The guy has no idea that I've been contributing thousands of hours and pages of content (for free) to the brewing community for over 8 years now, or that I published the book at the request of a number of regular blog readers who actually wanted to have the content in print.
I offered to discuss his concerns offline with him but no reply from him at all. Very frustrating...

If interested - please send an email directly to my beersmith account (@beersmith.com). I'll take the first 10 volunteers.
