In all honesty, this thread is a horse beaten long past death. Into ground horse-meat. Which you can make sauce out of. Arch, I suggest you lock this thing. This thread has become little more than a rage catcher.
To all else about to post, if you really disdain this thread, stop commenting on it, a thread that isn't kept up by conversation dies, and one that is bumped needlessly may be warranted to lock.
To be honest, Arch, you kinda made a mistake to discuss something like this in this environment. Not sure of any in particular, but I'm pretty sure you'd have a better chance actually getting anything out of discussion somewhere else, okay?
