Outsourcing is yet one more of those good ideas that have gone too far. Like an ad nauseum repeated catchphrase in a skit, after a while the fun stops. Outsourcing is good on some levels, but to... |

That is a nice site. I don't fish (and I haven't since I was about 7), but if I did I would visit your forum regularly. It looks like it has tons of potential to become an online source for fishing... |

Perl is great, but it's intentionally too flexible for an... |

It wouldn't be BAD to buy an Apple, but it's not the dominant platform out there. (though OS X does come prepackaged with Perl). You'd probably be better off sticking with the PC platform, learning a... |
