When trashing software/hardware/airhammers/etc., kindly include for=20
perspective the most recent version/vintage with which the trasher has=20
significant firsthand experience. For example, offering the venomous opinion=

that Hondas are irredeemable rustbuckets without disclosing that the last on=
e=20
owned was a '67 could be considered somewhat misleading and irrelevant.

'75), is not exactly "that which computers were first run by."
