    Before I made the original post in this newsgroup, I did a search
    regarding the SAS core service, and somebody posted the following, which
    I used in my original post:

    The SAS response is: "You need it for the free edition - leave it set as
    we set it. The core service should be left running - that's the bottom
    line - it uses little memory or cpu."

    Not much of a response.

    I set it to manual, SAS worked. Call it what you want, I've said what I
    think about it. 8-)

    No, it isn't a response but it doesn't make it a "crap-ware service" either.
