Well, *why* stay here then?  And as I said before, all of us can do
without your "bitching and ranting" (your words in quotes, not mine).

Ah, yes, I'm *already aware of said person and who he is.  But you see,
I wasn't referring to him at all or I would have put "Dr." with
the word.  I was referring to the way you are acting, just like a bozo
(noun).  Look it up if you don't know what it means.

This only reason this whole argument keeps going is because you and your
friends keep picking nits, details, and in general pick apart everything
I have to say on the subject.  

And as for my GS background or usage, I could care less what you or the
others think about it.  As I said before, I don't have to prove either
myself or my 17 years of overall computing experience to anyone.  I
seriously doubt you have been working with computers *in general* for as
long as I have.

That's just what I thought.

No fabrication needed.  I can quote verbatim your *own* words from your
*own* email right here if you so choose.  You bragged plenty.

Again, *you're* the one who bragged about speed, multitasking, and all
the rest in your first email to me.  For someone who is such a stickler
about speed and fast computers, it was presumed that even an accelerated
GS would be way too slow for you.  Yes, they are two different machines,
as all systems are from each other.  You're not telling me anything I
don't already know where that's concerned.

Stop trying so hard to be a first class jerk and refrain from trying to
have the last (incorrect) word here, OK?  Do that, and then you won't
have another reply from me.
