The more I look at the online stuff, the more disgusted I get.  Lots of
knobs, lights and whistles, but from an accounting viewpoint, they stink.

Just fixed a huge security hole in one of the packages that sits on your

This whole industry is reminding me of the retail PC market way back when

and all that.
