My ambition is to help at least as many people who are suffering from cyber-abuse and unauthorised snooping, as those millions who were helped Easy - tell them to get off twitter & facebook and don't use Windows. Job done. by being able to buy an affordable Amstrad PCW (etc) to write that novel or automate their business. Without my input it would have been like a TRS80 clone running Wordstar, and crashed and burned. No doubt. I'm content to be remembered for what I did in the past. Things in the future will be a bonus. Will be a bloody miracle. Amusing website though your employer has. More buzzwords than a BBC strategy white paper. Employer? If it's where I think you mean, I'm the director and main shareholder too. You're actually admitting to being responsible for all that waffle and guff? Oh dear. -- Spud |

Why do you think I don't know anything about medical research? So you're medically trained then or know people who are? Loads of the latter, but if that's the same for you why the current myopia? Returning back to the original argument - who has the real talent in a hospital, the medical staff or the administrators/managers and which one of them ultimately is more useful? Well, the same goes for IT. Ironically the CPCs were what got me properly into programming so you only have yourself to blame for this argument  My ambition is to help at least as many people who are suffering from cyber-abuse and unauthorised snooping, as those millions who were helped Easy - tell them to get off twitter & facebook and don't use Windows. Job done. And for you, get off the Overground. Job done. Job was done there months ago. -- Spud |

Well, the same goes for IT. If the managers can't raise the money, the beds are empty. And like I said before, the greatest talent is those researching new treatments (be they medicinal or surgical). -- Roland Perry |

We weren't talking about having "no doctors", but whose talents are higher. I'm not sure why you think that being in research automatically makes you more talented than someone at the coal face. Going into a research is a choice and there are many reasons for people not going into it other than not being good enough. It depends. I'd sooner be a researcher in a lab than a heart surgeon who's got a got knows how many hours op ahead and someones life directly in his hands. Much of the research is done by heart surgeons (or whoever) pioneering new treatments in the operating theatre. Well obviously someone has to actually do a new treatment eventually. That doesn't mean they're any better than the next guy. -- Spud |

The ones who pioneer (aka research) the new treatments are generally more skilled than those merely following in their footsteps. -- Roland Perry |

Alan Turing was certainly a genius but I wouldn't say that he was smarter than every other person working in computer science from now and ever after. In fact you could argue Tommy Flowers was the one who really gave computing the kick it needed. -- Spud |
