RE: How to find out the main memory capacity

Oh I don't know.  While I have noticed a radical decrease in the number of 
RTFM or STFW responses, I don't mind answering newbie questions.  And, 
sometimes an experienced person changes hats.  There are many seasoned RPG 
programmers that probably have never applied a ptf, etc.

Yet I have noticed a decrease in some participation by the people who used 
to reply RTFM.  I hope it's because they've decided to let the rest of us 
handle the easy ones, and not that they have dropped from the list. 
Because some of them were excellent.

After some of the replies perhaps I can understand why some subscribers 
adopt fictitious names like Tom_Cruise@xxxxxxxx  Although that's become 
rather of a red flag also.

I can't say that I am personally feeling the effects of all this 
outsourcing
(yet!), but I agree wholeheartedly with Clare's sentiments, that this is 
not
the correct forum for giving TRAINING to ANY individual, Indian or
otherwise. 

I most certainly am not a racist, religious bigot, political extremist,
homophobe .... or a practitioner of any other non-tolerant sect, but

If a colleague in my company needs training, I have the option of 
arranging
internal or external courses for them - either way it costs the business
real time & £money.

Those who are trying to use this forum as a classroom are cheating us (in
more ways than one), they are cheating themselves out of formal education,
and cheating the training sector out of business.

I for one will not be replying in the future, to any postings that are so
transparently 'lessons'.

Hi Oliver,

Have you looked up these guys (hcltech, gurgaon, India) on the internet?
These are the 'offsourcing' guys who are taking our jobs - and then they
expect us to train them for free as well!!

cheers,

Clare
