Responding to: ???'s previous message
Years ago, I knew a person who told me about a real problem he used to have.
he said
"when I started (1950'ish) we could not blame the computer, it was our fault, today it is easy, you just blame the computer"

isn't it wonderful that we in the embedded world can blame the chip, the compiler, the power, the EMF and that way leave each day feeling good.
