>>RE: Fixin' bugs

Yeah, but some systems programmers really like to fix their own bugs. Gives them a sense of accomplishment, a feeling of gaining on entropy, or something. Anyway, at its slowest, it may be quicker than waiting for Microsoft to fix their bugs.<<

Point well taken, however, I personally, wouldn't want the oversight responsibility to have to make corrections and fix the bugs in a system like UNIX or NT or Windows 98, or Office. I would never have time to do anything else! That is why I buy the updates and continue to support those who have the desire to write and fix these things!

Regards,

Ken
