You're right, you should because you twisted words to suit whatever purpose you had here. To indicate that me referencing a picture of "three" nodes in a usenet network is not representative of the "thousands" of nodes in the network is ludicrous and a lame attempt of trolling for an nonsense argument. The above does not change the fact that a node relative to itself operates like a star and as I stated in my last post, you have no control of what your nodes and points off your server will do. In other words, you don't need to go to a main hub to get your feeds. That still doesn't eliminate the idea each node itself operates as a star. What? You think you can just post in UK node and it will magically appear in some far distance USA node without some form of organized uplink/downlink transport system? Are you broadcasting by posting the article at different servers crossing your fingers that at least ONE will make and the others will by rejected as DUPES? And again, unless you UNDERSTAND the intricacies of developing hosting software especially for all hosting operationally needs when it comes to distribution, then yes, you should say good bye and shut up. -- HLS

So, Maxim, you won't lobby for creating a MSDN forum to replace m.p.development.device.drivers ? - pa

No. The death of m.p.development.device.drivers will just cause the people to move to OSR's lists I think. -- Maxim S. Shatskih Windows DDK MVP maxim(a)storagecraft.com http://www.storagecraft.com |
