It's like the automobile.  Same old dirty, greasy, loud internal combustion 
engine under the hood, that's been around for over a hundred years.  The only 
difference is the electronics like GPS navigation, DVD players, stereo 
systems, etc.  Lots of lights and buttons but, it still does the same thing in 
the same way...except now it costs a whole lot more to run.

Gary, N7HTS
