All the same, it would definitely help if we could all stay civil to each other.

if jtd changes his style - i'm leaving this group kg

I second that! He is part of an endangered species of people who actually speak their minds. Gishu

Friends,

Gishu beat me to seconding kg. So I'd 'third' it so to speak, if that helps.

This thread (acers laptop) was interesting and educative.

I speak probably for many of the lurkers like myself on this group when I say...

I've probably never met jtd or kg or Gishu or many like them except via the mail digests of the group. They add great value to the group and many of them have above average skills with their tech-appreciation, sharing, plus language/communications.

jtd stays here please, else I may leave too.
