All Ill say at this point is, I hope that anyone contemplating buying SL
will think twice after reading my posts, rather than listening to the
brainwash raves its advocates have been making.  There are 2 sides to the
story.  I will mention in passing that the majority of other SL sysops I
know would not buy it again.  Are we all wrong?  Maybe....I simply suggest,
let the buyer beware.

Also, rest assured that if the subject of SL comes up again in this group
in the future, Ill be posting again, for the benefit ot those who missed
this thread.  My goal is not to be "right", it is to warn potential buyers
of SL what a lousy, underpowered, and overprices piece of crap it is.
If Frank doesnt like it, tell him to give me my money back, and I will
forget SL exists and never make another comment about it.
