I just ran a search through the archives and saw you began posting as far back
as 1998. I'm amazed and had no idea you'd been here quite that long. I knew it
was from CM7000 days, since I recalled your inquiring about features and
whatnot, but not CM6000. Damn.
Look, they can talk all they want about getting 3 for 1, but some things just
can't be bought such as dedication, professionalism, and passion.
