- I can't believe it. If I see this question one more time I'll
- barf. What more this question is answered on a weekly basis. Hell,
- some guy writes a FAQ dedicated to answering this question and this question
- alone.
-
- I almost never ask questions on the net. Why? Because every
- time I have a question, the first thing I do is wait. I read all the
- old postings. Then I read the FAQ. Then I wait a week, reading all the
- traffic. I also work on the problem myself and think about it. 98% of
- the time I discover the answer myself without posting.
-
- Does this process drive me crazy? Obviously. But worse is turning
- myself inside out like a pretzel to reduce net noise, then watching
- net.idiots fire off the first stupid question that plops in their heads
- Makes me feel like a fool. Maybe I should just start posting away the
- minute any old question comes to me. Hey, guys, how do I find out what
- version roms I have?
