Nah, he is one of my chief resources. He has experience with computers
going back as far as mine and FAR more intense for the first 15 years.
(He wrote several of the Burroughs/UniSys "MCP" programs, yea, Master
Control Program. He's still with UniSys. He understands operating systems
guts at a level I'll never reach. And he has a proper old timer's disdain
for whippersnappers who think they know it all and go ahead to prove they
don't.) He also knows more of the guts of XP and probably some aspects of
Vista than most folks not captive at Microsoft.
