As someone who has benefitted from the advice from this forum, and a
relatively new user, can I add my tuppenceworth?

I can see both sides of this debate - there does seem to be a lot of
negative hyperbole about products.  However, I do believe that it is
useful for some of this infomration to be out there.  I am currently
debating (internally) whether or not to by a radio as an alarm - the
"debate" on these forums has helped me realise that this may not be
unproblematic, but that my use of SBS on an NAS may negate the issues
... that is probably enought to enhance my buying decision.  And I can
now safely ignore the rest of the debate (although I am waiting for the
"It's Fixed!" thread that is far less likely to be posted by disgruntled
users when they are finally listend too).

On the other hand, more positive posting about what does work should be
encouraged ... 

As other users have said, some of the "complainers" do not take advice,
and that is their perogative.  As a product matures, users become
consumers who expect stuff to work out of the box.  Those of us who
like fiddling should be able to co-exist with those who expect things
to work, and have never fiddled with a server.  The two approaches may
never see eye to eye, and perhaps, once a "complainer" has rejected
help once, it might be easier for all on the forum if both sides
disengaged ...

(But can I say that I value all of the debate on this forum!)
