I don’t think it’s for me but one never knows. I do a pretty good job of keeping track of prices. If I over pay for a card its generally one I really want, and hopefully by the time I sell my cards or card I will have gotten out of the hole.

This whole thing reminds me of the computer business in the early days. Back in the day people use to share information, knowledge, programs and even hardware for free. There was a community pile of information that was available, some people shared more than others. Until one day when a few people decided to not share and charge for software/programs etc. Then the open computer community went bust and became a real business not a hobby.

Nothing wrong with capitalism making money is a good thing, but you can’t avoid how some people will feel slighted for someone else profiting off his or her knowledge.

As for the 2 programs which was first to the market Ted’s or Roberts? Could we have the makings of a new Apple Microsoft rivalry here!
