RE:Dorine-Happy belated birhtday-I continue at least "for the moment" on this thread to try to add my help and what market knowledge I have to others ---towards making the correct decisions and absolutely feel that I definitely have helped some to do just that.I do not yet know what I will do about some calling me a racist,it is a sueable offense and I have more than one attorney.The cheapest most terrible thing a person can do in trhis new Marshall McLuhan world is to use the technology to smear a persons well earned and fine reputaion. A charge of thst overiding nature is not forgivable!-I done nothing but help people and have never meant anyone of any race,creed ,color or even those of little"sense of humor" any wrong.I do not suffer fools easily at my age "I never did as a younger man".Those that come on this thread and quickly attempt to play the role of elder statesman iritate me. wbm

Dorine,

I think in part, the fighting, or at least the appearance of fighting comes with this new media for communicating.

Few, if any of us posting here, have acquired any formal skills for accurate communication in print. This is worsened by the immediacy of the medium. Type it, post it and voila! Without any proof reading, or benefit of an editor, whatever was typed becomes part of the public domain.

So I think it's very easy for misunderstandings to arise, then get out of hand. I tend to ignore them; and move on to posts that have more relevant information about Dell.

Sorry to hear that it was a "wart" on your otherwise happy birthday.

Best wishes,
Ian.
