Speaking of which - here's a great analogy: You have a beautiful shiny car - the most awesome stereo system with digital video, all kinds of bright shiny spacey knobs, the best controls for driver comfort, and you feel like a million bucks when you're sitting in it - BUT you have * Tyres 2mm thick that puncture when you're on the road * An engine that rumbles nicely whilst parked, but dies when you get on the road * No seatbelts and no air-bag cushions * You can only seat one * You don't choose the colour or style of the car * You don't really choose the music on the stereo - it's chosen for you and you decide from what's already chosen what you want to listen to. * There is no windscreen * There are no mirrors * No locks of whatever type or kind * The steering wheel is not bolted to the column * You have to purchase petro from only one source, and that source is 1000km away so you have to ship it to the vehicle - your cost. * The maker flatly denies any responsibility for anything that ever happens to the vehicle once it's sold to you. stephen kuhn - owner ============================== illawarra computer services a kuhn media australia company http://kma.0catch.com ------------------------------------------------------------------ * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * We expressly refuse to utilise Microsoft DRM encoded documents ------------------------------------------------------------------ learning curve, n.: An astonishing new theory, discovered by management consultants in the 1970's, asserting that the more you do something the quicker you can do it.
