I am not looking for people to put other people down but it seems some people LIVE for just such an activity. Although I said I have been programming for 8 years, I did not say in any means that I had programmed the IBM PC for that long. I can't remember when I started playing with these things but it was some years ago. If people would spend less time trying to prove other people wrong and more time using there nut-brains, they would be doing things a little more productive than tring to put people down.
