jetter ... It's all in the presentation. It's a sales job. That, however, doesn't mean that the product doesn't provide the improvements promised. There's an old adage in the sales business ... "Don't sell the steak, sell the sizzle." And by the way, my comment regarding pompous EE holders was in response to the above post by Georgehifi:
How his constant demeaning of other members doesn't raise the ire of the moderators is beyond me. Frank |
