Would you please take your alt.aquaria/rec.aquarium argument, which has
now degenerated to "my computer is better than your computer" argument,
somewhere else?  Frankly, this diatribe has absolutely nothing to do with
rec.pets, or even (now) fish and aquaria!  If you absolutely must argue
about this, why not do it via email?  or alt.flame? or alt.who.cares?

	Thanks.
