So Much BS! I predicated my statement with the difference between a hack and a pro. You are permitted to be a hack. Just don't show up when I am asking for the pro's with crappy tools; I won't give you the job - I will just laugh. Why such defense of crappy tools? I am in IT, so when applied to computers, I don't expect someone I work with or hire to show up with junk. For myself, I want and need effective, professional tools.
Thank you, Mark Snyder -----Original Message----- Those building homes need better tools than someone putting together a few pieces of wood. Interestingly, when I have a friend of mine over who is a professional carpenter, he doesn't make fun of me because of the saw I use. He knows I don't do it for a living, I don't need the level of tool he does for his job. Would that computer users would behave the same way.
