I misunderstood your posts directive to the "Guy" who was already referring
to his system.
My apologies Mark. I agree the computer is a valuable tool although I do
think its over rated
in regards to systems. In the hands of a great programmer like yourself
maybe my perspective would changed along theses lines. But for all of us
you don't process your skills in that arena the computer can be dangerous
in regards to systems. To many people hoping the computer will do the work
for them and expect to put a buck in and get two back just because its a
computer. I agree that's dumb but it happened to me and is happening
everyday in the markets to others.
