Trevor, You seem to be stating that Borland does support on the net (me, I don't know) and Dave in specific. Is Dave an OFFICIAL Borland presence on the net (ie, providing support, taking bug reports, etc) or someone who happens to work for an employer who provides net access as a free benefit? Like Dave, the "@" in my email address has definite name recognition. Using the net is a fun benefit as far as I'm concerned :> If that's what it is to Dave, then I question your remark. If not, sorry. I've had enough net.encounters where it's been assumed I speak for microsoft, and I've received enough emails that start with "you fucking microshit..." that I am somewhat sensitive to the fact that posting from your employer's machines does not mean you represent your employer. (One advantage of the non-computer related groups is the large number of people who don't know WHAT microsoft IS. :-) :> -jen ObDisclaimer: no, I'm not speaking for microsoft, okay?????? > >--------------------------------------------------------------------------- >Trevor Jenkins Re: "deemed!" >134 Frankland Rd, Croxley Green, Rickmansworth, WD3 3AU, England >email: tfj@apusapus.demon.co.uk radio: G6AJG >phone: +44 (0)923 776436
