Norton hasn't been a person for years, he is a corporation. I don't know how smart he is but he was definitely timely. If you notice on almost all the books Norton 'writes' it is in association with someone else. The other guy probably writes the book, but they use Norton's name to sell it. Which book would you rather buy, the one by Norton or the one by Anaffin Slobopowitz? Take marketing 101 sometime, jeez. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= \ \_ _/ / =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | Joe Burkley | O_O | "It's not enough that I succeed, | | burkley@cod.nosc.mil \/_\/ everyone else must fail." | =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- \_/ -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
