I explained my stand on amusement machines based on PCs in my last long post. They are hardly "uninformed opinions". I have held this belief for many years and it is well founded based on many years of experience directly with this type of equipment. I have been of this opinion for many years before even hearing of Jack or WOZ. I was happy when JJP announced a new veture and then saddened when I found out it was to be PC based.
You are fully entitled to have a differing opinion and I respect that - it seems that you don't accept that anyone could possibly have an opinion that differs to yours.
By the way - did you know Stern pinballs are made by child labour in Nth Korea and have small bo ..............it must be true you told me.......
I respect that you might have a different opinion. However:
1) When you say something that is provably incorrect - whatever the reason - and then you are corrected in such a way that you see it with your own eyes and it cannot be disputed, I don't expect a reasoned person to blindly ignore that information. It's very hard to have a discussion with someone who thinks the sky is green if he refuses to go outside or look at pictures to see that it's really blue. I don't expect you to take anything I say at face value, but please be open to adjusting your thinking based on empirical evidence.
2) Similarly, if you believe someone is incorrect on something, of if you are trying to present a differing point of view, then most people like to be shown facts or specific pieces of information that help them understand your opinion and your reasons for saying it. To LEARN, rather than be TOLD. For example, elsewhere you say that replacing the motherboard on WOZ will be a "nightmare". Why? How is it much different than replacing a CPU board on an embedded system? Please explain so that I and everyone can understand!
