Greg, I totally agree with you:
>For me, it's bad enough if the computer industry can't get fairly basic word
>processing stuff right, but when they force you to wait five seconds before
>doing it wrong, *that*'s an industry in trouble.
However, Greg, I wouldn't be so quick to jump all over the computer industry.
They're the same ones who offer us the opportunity to upgrade our pc's with
more add-ons like more RAM. I used to have 8mb or RAM on my 486dx33, and
recently boosted up to 32mb or RAM. Guess what? I wait no longer!
