I have a BMW 330 I 2001 Dinian with 275 HP on an IN-LINE 6 Cyl., that runs just as well as the Mercedes,better if you ask me, but I did not have to pay an extra $30,000 just for the star on the front of the car, and the name Mercedes, when a BMW works just as good for much less.

Microsoft and oracle have all but killed sun, because they refuse to accept change, and TRY to get over on companys because "WERE SUN", yes they may have won the battle with Microsoft, but the war is far from over... after oracle dumped sun like a bad script that was like nailing the coffin shut... you agree or not? >Eddy > >Brotsman & Dreger, Inc. - EverQuick Internet Division >Phone: +1 (316) 794-8922 Wichita/(Inter)national >Phone: +1 (785) 865-5885 Lawrence >-- > >Date: Mon, 21 May 2001 11:23:58 +0000 (GMT) >From: A Trap <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Please ignore this portion of my mail signature. > >These last few lines are a trap for address-harvesting spambots.
