     Hey buddy, when I put up my messages concerning the Trump, it was to
help other people.  Not to be dissected paragraph by paragraph and critiqued
and condescended on as you seem so well at doing.  If we are going to discuss
the merits of each system, fine.  But, you make it sound like Trump card 
buyers are buying the cheapest system available and paying the piper later
when they expand.  I did do my homework ahead of time and bought my system
accordingly.  Yes, I do believe my system that probably cost I figure about
$100 more (I'm approx. since I have not learned what you paid for your system)
is definitley worth it since I get 28 meg more space and a SCSI drive to boot.
     As for what may or may not be condescending, may be a matter of opinion,
but I felt your comments at points were.
     For example, I wrote I was happy with the Trumpcard.  You dissect that
part out and say, well of course you're happy, gee whiz, you moved from a 
floppy system to a hard drive system, for heaven's sake.  Yeah, I really need
that kind of comment.  
     If you want to write messages to inform people about hardware in the 
future, leave it at that.  Don't dissect other people's subjective comments
and define it for them, eh?  Make the effort.  You'll find people will find
you less abrasive.  As for me being abrasive, I plead guilty, but if you 
read my replies, it's starts off very courteous to your first response, but
ends with acrimony after your condescending second response.
                                Later
p.s.  I can't wait to see this dissected.  Dissect to your hearts content 
      and enjoy yourself.
