New Sorry, Professor Belousov, but if he's staying on topic...
...he sure is doing it in a very babbly kind of way.

Your lies are of Microsoftian Scale and boring to boot. Your 'depression' may be the closest you ever come to recognizing truth: you have no 'inferiority complex', you are inferior - and something inside you recognizes this. - [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=71575|Ashton Brown]

New Two points on-topic, one tangential illustration
1. That many people are intimidated into NOT learning how to use a computer, and
2. IT's problem is not just the people who don't know what they are doing, but the people who know just enough to really screw things up.

He then provided an example for #2.

THEN he went off topic, a bit, by delving into NT end-user hacking tips, but it was tangentially related to #2.

New Indeed, Dr. Conrad -
he's staying on topic. In his own kind of way. Just like His Excelence Dr. Brown or His Learned Lucidity Sir Oxley often do. And we both are off topic. What a shame.
