First of all this is a hobby site for me.
I created the site after so many people complaining about ebay posts and useless stuff..
The rule being, if you don't like it make your own.
I am not a professional writer and this is not a professional site. It is a hobby site. I
make no money.. I do this because I like old computing.
Second, if I am wrong.. I will admit it, correct it and learn. Thats part of the hobby.
Part of me learning about computer history is through the posts. It gives me something to
research.
If you see something wrong. Just let me know and I will fix it and give you credit. Dave
McGuire and Ian Primus already got credit.
I am all for constructive criticism and willing to accept being wrong. (you learn more
from mistakes) all I ask is for constructive criticism and not a comparison to fecal
matter

First of all if you have a
problem with
the article, please just say so and don't call
it "s**t. If you find something inaccurate, say so don't be
demeaning.
If you were the author, then I do apologize for being heavy
handed.
However, there are some basic facts wrong that could have
been very
easily corrected before publication by simple fact checks.
To not do
so is inviting people like me to comment.
We, as a whole, flame reporters for getting basic facts
wrong, so the
rules of this game are pretty well known.
