Carlos,
Now, yet another thing that you (Craig) seem to be missing: you're
simply putting the expense of all this time under the expenses column
in exchange for solving the particular problem...
More like I was trying to keep my response short ;-). I think we're all in
agreement on pretty much everything:
1. Understand your problem
2. Find potential solutions
3. Find the technical, economic AND situational tradeoffs
4. Choose the best course of action
My original comment was directed at item #3. I was trying to remind everyone
that a simple cost analysis may point to solutions that simply aren't possible,
given business constraints.
I know we also agree that we should constantly fight corporate stupidity and
short-sighted budgetary oversight. But that's a second battle, one that goes
on forever. Sometimes you just have to get the job done within the current
constraints.
'Nuff said.
Craig
