I have no problems with it but i guess it´s a matter of taste and getting used to working with it...

so the steps to save a multi is more then just STORE, RENAME, and save?

No that´s about it but only for the multi program.

I am reading the manual, but its not making any sense. Or rather, I am confused on weather I should sell the virus, because it only has 1 delay for all 16 parts,

Yes that a downer. The Virus TI doesn´t suffer from this problem...

and to save, you need to save the multi (17 times) 1 for each 16 part, and one for the multi, correct? If this is the case, I feel the virus is crippled and I can not work like this....

Yes and no. If you choose patches that are already programmed and needs no tweaking the you only have to save the multi. The multi program contains information about which patch number are chosen for each part (ie. part 1 = A110 Robotvoice JM, part 2 = B019 Bounce JM, etc.). If you need to tweak a sound you have to save it as a single.
Example:
You want to change the resonance setting of part 2 which is patch A023. To save the setting you have to save the single program A023. You don´t have to save the multi again since it already knows that part 2 is patch A023 (you saved this earlier when you saved the multi program).

I imported some new sounds in the virus, which I think its great, but now when I save, I see "MULTI Stored but take notice, there are some edited singles."
I dont know what this means, all I am trying to do is save my multi, can you explain the exact steps, because I dont understand the virus messages.

This means excatly what is says. You loaded new data into the single patch memory so you have to save the singles that has changed. You don´t have to save the multi to save the sounds. Just the single you have altered/loaded a new patch to. You only have to save the multi when you changed a parameter in the multi program just as you only have to save the single if you changed data in the single.
The way i usually work is in multisingle mode. I choose or program my sounds for the individual parts in multisingle mode. When i´m done tweaking/programming a patch i save it as a single program. When i´m done selecting patches for the parts in the multi i go to multi mode and save the multi.
