hey - the CDL kept me employed at MTI for a long time in the 80's. Everyone
forgets that at one time, without guys like me - no one was able to stay in
business. But then, that damn STABILTY and digital circuits kicked in. And
then, the "maintenance tech" business started to die off. Wouldn't it be great
if the Adrenaline and Nitris DX box drifted every week, so you had to call me
in to align it - aah - those were the days.
The next professional to say "hey - just run out to the local office store, and
pick me
up a disk drive" - should be put in a gallows - the way it used to be, in the
good old
1800's.
