Really? Does Larry also think the bitty Bose speaker systems are crap,
and that you cannot violate the laws of physics when it comes to sound
reproduction?

Bitty Bose speaker systems may be crap, but the ol' Doc has done pretty
well:

So has Dick Cheney. Doesn't mean he isn't crap, too. Sometimes there is a
connection between money and quality, and sometimes there isn't. Wal-Mart
does a tremendous amount of business, and yet it is a crap operation.


You must feel like a voice in the wilderness since thousands, hundreds of
thousands and millions of people feel otherwise everyday.

I saw a documentary about Wal-Mart the other day. They have a central
computer system that is second in size only to that used by the Pentagon.
The sale of any item, from a plasma TV to a tube of toothpaste at any store
nationwide is reported to the central computer within an hour of the sale.
Trends are monitored as well as weather forecasts for all areas because a
storm or unusual weather event historically raises the demand for certain
items. The computer data results in extra stock of those items being
shipped to the affected area from several distribution centers, days before
the storm system arrives.
