Bill,

Bad day?

Your response was "why didn't you do <this>?" and then you went on to talk
abot Linksys hardware being crap.

Whether or not you knew it, the hardware in question *is* Linksys, and I
felt the need to describe my exp. with the hardware you implied/said was
crap...

It's like if I said I used vi to edit a file, and you came back and said
"why didn't you use emacs?" - I didn't have a problem, but thanks for
telling me another way to have handled it. I simply mentioned several other
things that could have been done and *you*got defensive, so I'd call it a
draw.

No harm, no foul.

Ken
