Sorry, that message was ment to be private e-mail, unfortunately it
didn't end up that way.
Judging by the amound to negative list traffic being created by
that fellow's posts (and our responses) most people don't want/need that
sort of thing. He's on alot of lists BTW. It's not the information
given that I don't like, just the way it is presented. If he posted an
informative description of his hardware, along with benchmarks for
various applications, I wouldn't mind. But slimy net ads thinly
disguised as responses to hinest questions, well, I don't go for that.
I pay a flat fee for my access so I don't mind financially. I was
just thinking about others who do not share the same flexibility.
Regards
Ken
