SHOULD I UPGRADE NOW OR WAIT? | Forum advice: Search400.com

One user writes, "I'm thinking of doing a system upgrade. It seems 
like every time you turn around there is a new one available. My 
question is: Should I get V5R1, V5R2 or hold off for a few months to 
see if IBM will come out with V5R3? Is V5R2 really as stable as 
everyone says it is?" What would you recommend?

THE MISSING LINK | Florida for a farthing

One person's goof is another person's Goofy. A family in the U.K. 
managed to fly to Florida for about $23 apiece -- cheaper than the 
price of one person's meal at Cinderella's Royal Table. Did they 
hitch a ride on Dumbo's back? Close. Actually, an online travel 
service called First Choice mistakenly listed the Florida fares. The 
Dryer family bought six tickets and hoped that Disney magic would 
keep First Choice in the dark. It did -- until the Dryers got back 
home and told the media how they had all popped across the pond for 
about the price of a single one-way ticket from Fort Lauderdale to 
Orlando. First Choice said a staff member is the one who made the 
Dopey mistake. The company let the Dryers get away with it and ate 
the $4,500 it lost.
