YMMV but I find most of his sayings to little bearing on real life in
general. At least for me. Call me illogical. :-)
As I found when I finally picked up an Exidy Sorcerer and the Sol-
20, two machines I've wanted the longest, that having the machine
and finally being able play with it was MUCH more pleasurable than
looking at the old ads and reviews and wishing I had one. And one
tends to learn a lot more about the machine as well. I'll take having
the system over wanting it any day.
