I'm no pro on the matter, but of of the guys on that forum are pros, and they TRULY are fired up about it, lol.

I just thought I'd post this, perhaps to clear up some confusion that I've seen over the past few days. Feel free to flame me - I don't care one way or the other. I just like to have facts to back things up.

I'm glad you posted this, Ramesh. Not necessarily because of the subject matter, but because I'm a big believer in researching *anything* I read on the 'net before I accept it as gospel. The internet is a great source of useful information, but it's also a fountain of half-truths and just plain bad info. Yes, it takes a little longer to reply to many people because of this, but it's worth it in the long run to at least get most of the facts correct.
