PWMs, 3FXXs and personal opinions.

Andrew,

Please do not feel as though you started this. Very few
people can contribute right from the beginning. As each
of us learns and grows, there will be times that we are
able answer someone elses questions.

Myself, I've been at this for several years now. And I
still don't know enough. As much as I've worked with 
the '747 code, I am still learning.

As far as people that sit back and take, well, there is
nothing that can be done. I've thought about the people
that take, take, take. However, it will not stop me from
contributing whenever I can. To do so would mean the end
of the list, then where would we be?

There are times when the right question comes along, it
gives me an 'in' to release some new info. Heck, I can
remember the time, when I couldn't even find the checksum
value in a '730 bin. That is why I am here.

BobR.

>much! I'm sorry for being stupid.
