Hi Tom.

My philosophy about computer books is simply this: If a $50 book contains something of value that saves me one hour, it paid for itself. I can assure you that I have saved much more than the price of all my books by taking advantage of knowledge they contain.

My sentiments exactly < s >.

Not everyone is born with infinite knowledge and can learn from others, although I have met a few people who think they are all knowing! :)

Oh, I take it that you have met my husband, then < vbg >. I had no idea that when I met and married "Mr. Right" that is first name was "Always" < g,d&rfak >.

Having said that, I think that Andy reads more technical books than I do < s >.
