Have any of your Filipino colleagues been given an opportunity to try out any of these systems? It will be most instructive to learn which one they prefer.

The poster in question advised me that I should get a job a few months ago, so I could afford better hardware. I've been self-employed since the age of 12 - nearly fifty years - and have no intention of trading the advantages of that for the nebulous security of a regular paycheck. His posts indicate he's as hide-bound in his way as I am in mine. Possibly worse. TJ -- Life isn't fair. It's not meant to be. Overcoming the disadvantages we face is what makes us strong.

Only in so much as the poster posts this information to a public news group. If somebody is touting/something as being brilliant, working like a charm, etc, all the usual sales talk, would you be a little dubious if the person expounding these notions does not appear to use the product which they are so keen to promote? > Get off your high horse........ You are clearly riding one by your attitude.
