RE: Midrange expertise on non-midrange stuff

Yes, I suggested this a month or so ago.  Because us midrange people have a
different perspective then the windows people, and just because we're
completely ignorant of some windows info doesn't mean we're dumb as rocks.

(Who knows - maybe MS products crash and succumb to bugs because of the
mentality of the sys admins and programmers??)

Anyway, count me in for a Windows for Midrange Professionals list.  Not for
a general free for all, though, because the posts would be too long.  It's
why I didn't sign up for the iNation list.
