Mike: Reminds me of what I posted a while back,....MIS types no longer want to acquire expensive, high end PC's because,..."I don't want our people playing internet aerial combat or checking their stocks all day long". Sigh. What's America coming to if a guy can't relieve stress during the day by blasting his worthless opponent from the skies with a move that would have Tom Cruise applauding. (g) And how can a manager expect an employee to produce if he's worried about the latest tick move on his stocks,...a quick check that it's up another dollar and he's happily back to work. (g) Best, Earlie
