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

   | 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.
