To Guru and Andy Lockwood

Apologies for apparently giving the impression that I couldn't be bothered to use the forums properly, that I expect forum members to respond to my every whim and that I regard forums as nothing more than a free lunch.

I am new to online discussions and to running my own business - and to so many other aspects of audio and video, although music has been central thoughout my life. Also I have a deadline for making the right decisions so forgive me for trying to utilise a fantastic resource and is it my fault that the forums operate freely? I have read with great interest other people's cotributions and I truly believe that forums like these are priceless.

Can't help but feel a bit irritated though - are you always this harsh on newbies?

Regards

Nigel Pollard
