I recently posted an article discussing the merits of CAM, Watson, and
PCX (BigmOuth).

A  gentleman named   Scott   Rose  from the   University  of Wisconsin
suggested that  my  comments had  been   a bit harsh   with respect to
Watson.  I believe  that   my   terminology was,  "a piece  of  junk."
Indeed, Watson is not a piece of  junk.  It can be  used to answer the
phone, and  if you are willing to  put up  with lack of telemarketting
capability  and with   a confusing  and   unorganized manual and  menu
structure, then  Watson,  which  is  priced less  than   any   of  the
competition, might be the one for you.

I apologize to Natural Microsystems and Watson users in general for my
overly enthusiastic bashing.  I was out of line.
