damon: i understand what you're saying. i'd rather respect someone who cranked
out good stuff rather than someone who cranked out crap. i just admire the work
ethic of people who get a lot of work done. that's all. so if someone asked me

opinion on hardware, i would say "well, i respect the fact that he busts his
ass and
gets a lot of mix cds for labels done" but i don't like his music. hope this
makes sense. i've been flying off the handle all day. let's let this hardware
thread die now please, though. andrew :)
