But Perry, why didn't you just post some facts, or ask for some other people
to discuss their experience with the different boards?

You initial posting sounded very much like one vendor was talking to you
about how lousy their competitors products were.  And then you seemed to
be repeating this as vague warnings and some technically questionable
assertions, without your really understanding all the issues involved.

Sorry, but your initial posting was most irritating...
