He's saying you don't have a chance, but he's *not* telling you to give up programming. Personal reflection: it's risky to make friends and relatives depend on the success of your hobby projects. I got away with it once or twice (under special circumstances) but it might equally well have ended with resentment. "Why did he sell this crap idea to me? Now I'm stuck with it." /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn <grahn@ Oo o. . . \X/ snipabacken.se> O o . -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
