I'm probably like a lot of other people of late. I design integrated circuits and make a
well above average direct aggregate income with bonuses based on how well the company's doing. I could probably afford an M5 with these things alone if I were creative enough financially, but since I'm not I have to rely on making my toy money the old fashioned way: stock options.

hey grandx,
yes you're absolutely right, but this is actually not marketed for to US calls, to be honest it will be to marketed more to sub-sahara and to middle east, possibly in conjunction with some dsl providers (not verizon of course). it is subsidized though through marketing, also much like dialpad, net2phone, hot telephone and such. also we will have 800 access also, but free U.S.. whole bunch of ideas for it, most of them panned out. thank you for your input grandx, its much better to get cynicism then sugar coated baseball bats http://www.bmwm5.com/ubb/smile.gif. o and btw, that is not my production site, it will be deployed 1st quarter 01.

Nothing wrong with asking!
As a stockbroker the bull market, at least through the spring, had everything to do with the indulgence of an M5. Fortunately my clients and I are not too heavily in tech stocks. The guys up north must be hurting. Good timing there, TD.

Radiation, it deals with the use of radiation to treat people. I'm not in the neuro (nervous system, brain/spinal cord etc.) field, so I really have no more information.
