Customer quotes: Customer quotes: Nothing can hide from SIP! (Matanya Ophee, Editions Orphée, on SipXref)

[...] the most dramatic changes can be found in our tablature. Music Editor Jimmy Brown has adopted a brilliant new notation program that will no doubt become the new industry standard. By using a slightly larger staff and creating a ‘pocket of air’ around the tab numbers, Jimmy has created a new system that is substantially easier to read and which will save an incredible amount of wear and tear on your eyeballs. (Brad Tolinski, Editor-in-Chief of Guitar World on the program SipEPS01, December 2003)

You should win a customer service award. (Happy SipSib user in the UK, January 2004)

All your programs are great. (Happy SIP user in Finland, November 2004)
