As a result, the signal-to-noise ratio has gone way down. Talking about vaoprware, after I think about it a while, only depresses me. I'm interested in what I can do now, not next year. Waiting is not my thing, doing neat stuff is. We already went through The Boing Wars once already. Face it: designers will create wonderful ideas and stupid mistakes. Some have more of one than the other (I will privately mail my opinions to anyone who's interested; I don't think there will be a big response, do you?). This is the point: If machine 'x' really is sh*t, then why did person 'y' buy it? Furthermore, why did person 'y' keep machine 'x' after "seeing for himself" that it was sh*t? One machine will not please everyone, and that's why there are all different kinds. This is one of the advantages of living in America. Please redirect followups to these threads of thought to the appropriate news group; I'm getting tired of sorting through 50 articles a day, only half of which are remotely interesting. To get an idea of what it's like, visit net.jokes sometime ("There are 320 new messages in net.jokes, only 7 of which are funny. Read now [ynq]?"). Don't followup to this article, as talk.bizarre might get annoyed (snicker, snicker...). _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ ________ ___ \ /___--__ Leo L.
