As if companies can't afford 200k hehehe.. yeah some companies do it on the dodge while others (like my work) will happily part with $100k to keep me from bugging them about writing UI in DHTML when FLEX is available... i am spoiled..and i know it but i have had the misfortune of working for companies where it was expected that I pirate the software i need in order to do my job - thankfully those days are behind me and i now just focus on pirating xbox ga...errr...umm.. hehehe.. I've seen Micha around the web quite a bit and can come off pretty strong but nothing that would put my nose out of joint. He maybe coming from the soft-enterprise world where I am sitting where it rains money, lolliepops and rainbows every day - that or dilbert comic - and its easy to simply fall into the trap of expecting companies to spend money on situations that call for it - i myself follow this trap often. Yet it does strike at the heart of a problem, in that if a company sole existance depends on something as critical as a website, then they are stupid for not pooring the entire warchest into making sure it works... > The person who started this (connie) said she just listed some verifiable > error or concerns on there forums which they promply deleted.

Damn, I am having a blast with flash > forms! Yeah deletion of any public content online is typically a cowardly act but its their play pen and if they don't like it, they can pick up their toys and go home. Childish as it maybe but in 4 months time who will remember what that post was about (or this one) and so the ripple fades and life goes on.... ;) -- Regards, Scott Barnes http://www.mossyblog.com http://www.flexcoder.com (Coming Soon) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
