I'm afraid that you missed my point.
What I was trying to say is that it never hurts to wait because when you rush into something you tend to make mistakes. I don't know why it has become such a bad thing to wait and see.
If he turns out to be right, all those people making rude comments about him will have a lot of electromagnetic egg on their face. Too often we rush ahead and then wonder why wonder drugs cause cancer, Priuses stall in intersections and peoples lives are in danger. I don't know why ubiquitous internet is so important.
Not that long ago people had to look things up at the library in a card catalogue. Now people are making fun of someone who wants top wait.
I thought that was always the smart thing to do with computers. Who buys 1.0 software?
I had a great time in Toronto. No looting and the and everyone out in the streets made it very safe. Thanks to lax Canadian drug laws it was a big party pretty much everywhere. The one thing I was suprised about was that no one raised prices for candles, canned food etc. Someone said after the fact there should be a blackout every year in the summer. I agree. It was a fun holiday with just enough drama to keep us all excited.
Remember tulips? Whats a tulip really worth? A buck or two at the most. Yet at one point in time people would pay a whole lot for a lowly Tulip bulb. Imagine how you'd feel when the squirals dug up thousand dollar bulbs!
I wish the people in my office could look after their computers. But then I would be out of a job.
I spend most of my time correcting mispelled login names and passwords, turning "broken" printers by clicking the switch etc. If these people had been taking care of their own boxes we would have been nailed by everything and all their passwords would be "password" or their own login name.
I agree about parents. I have had to show my parents some of the simplest things... like how to rename their icons.
As far as they are concerned, if it wasn't for AOL, there wouldn't be an internet
I'm lucky as far as jam goes in my family. My Uncle in law sent my father some jam with a virus and after the dust settled he no longer opens it and no longer forwards it.

Viruses are good for some purposes.
