[R-390] new guy

Speaking of sysadmins and retro addictions...

I was amused and amazed to be chastised recently for taking pictures with a
30 year old Minolta SLR and then lectured on the instant gratification that
can be had from a digital camera.  My reply to them is that I do modern
technology for a living, I sure as H___ do not have to do it for recreation.


And people ask me why I walked out the door after 20 years at Hughes and 
Raytheon at age 55. 20 years of leading edge computers was all I wanted.
My R390 still pulls more signals out of the air than I want to listen to any 
time.
And I and hundreds of others know what to do to it if it don't. And it 
doesn't need a patch and new software release. If your R390 don't work you fix it 
your self. You do not call me to figure it out for you.

It was state of the art. It is state of the art. And all you can do for it is 
give it a bath from time to time to get some of the finger prints off it.
