JBN:OTOT <<<<http://www.exchange2000.com/~wsapi/investor/reply-77188 >>> Thanks Three, I have been in a quandary lately over technical details,suffering from information overload perhaps. But having read that post the skies are clear again, I have seen the light, all is clarified.Buy Dell But what the 4%%$ is an ADSL and do I need one?? (Just kidding) The CPQ is working fine except I lost 1/2 of my 32 meg memory and will replace it with 2-32's ordered over the web at $29 ea. Thank goodness for cheap parts. Am not worried about cheap computers or sales,had dinner (Fathers Day) with 4 computer scientists from vidoecom, geac, phg, bmcs. We went in a new Ford Taurus wagon with 700 miles total on oddometer Miscellaneous discussions: Q: How many computers in your (one person) office? A. Eight, with two on the desk, 386's and 486's are gone now. Q How many people and how many computers? A.Eighty , having more than one computer each Q. How many people and how many computers? A. 140 with about two each During dinner a PHG facility lost power and somebody's beeper went off, so I asked about it. Backup is batteries, followed by a diesel generator( 5000 kw), which computes as a very potent 7,000+ HP. Meanwhile we are at Hulen Mall, 347,000 visitors per day, which exceeds the avg 250,000 at the Cooper St mall. 4 New resturants, 1 1/2 hour wait at the Outback. A new Lowes going in on a 5 acre sight 1 mile N of the existing Home Depot. Regular gas sells for < 99 cents. I hear the growth in Austin may even exceed what is occuring here, so from where I stand that SEA crisis is going to have a bit of trouble affecting the economy deep in the heart of Texas. (Disregarding a few overbuilt chip plants) Regards Sig
