Hence my following sentence. Any sane person would give such a task to the professionals :lol:

I think a better analogy would be someone that walked 10 miles around the one-way system following TomTom set to "car mode", when if only they'd been shown it they could have taken a short-cut that was just a few yards.

As I said in my previous post, I'm not saying people should only use CLI's :roll:

And JJ, yes, your example is a much better one, I was struggling to find a good example.
IMO, it's a question over immediate savings (yeah, they said they can use a PC, just stick one in front of them) and long term savings (if I train my users to use the machines in front of them to get the best out of them, they will work much more efficiently and get more work done in the same amount of time). Sure, you may have to pay them a bit more, but if they are working more efficiently, I'm guessing you probably make up the extra your spending.

Really pleased as I just found a full set of RAW images from a shoot that I thought I'd lost.

That only makes you slightly less of a n00b than a few weeks ago...

I don't care because I have the images back. Nothing you say can take away from that, so (8+p

Just found out I'm due a salary increase backdated to September. It won't be much, but 8 months' worth in April's pay will be a nice little lump.

My back / leg is absolutely killing me. Painkillers don't seem to be doing much.
