That's the odd thing the report, says he should have had many fewer
support people than he actually had?

I also like the reference about the good side of the business <<<"[House
5] was an AS/400, consistent with a legitimate securities trading
business," >>> That the AS/400 is consistent with the legitimate side, but
bad with the scam side?

It appears, from a quick read, to put much of the blame squarely
on the AS/400 ...

<tongue in cheek>

Of course it was the platform's fault! Modern systems require prepackaged
software, and require a lot of people to support and maintain, they get
viruses and run unreliably, which require more people to be involved. You
couldn't pull that level of fraud off with a modern system.

So it's the system's fault!
