Dan, Mike, et al,

Goodness gracious, I was MORE THAN HAPPY to pay the dough to help this little venture out.

I don't know how anyone else values their time but ONE HELPFUL ANSWER pays for two years of my time. My time is valuable!

As I mentioned before, if Michael wants to nag the nonpayers with advertisements, that'd be ok by me.

The bigger issue with me is that people would have the GALL to blatently take advantage of the community without being willing to give back at least a little.

So you get what you want for free - Nyah nyah nyah?? Grow up.

I say keep the free membership, nag them with ads, and perhaps those who refuse to pay will some day realize the real value here.

While I think MF should put the new hardware in first I'll pay the extra $$ when my renewal comes due. 75 stupid dollars. Give me a break!! *g*

"Yessir Mr. Client, I'm Joe Professional Developer and I don't think enough of my craft to spend any serious $$ on keeping myself up to date."

Uh huh... *g*

Best,
