Gentlemen,
I know we live in a high tech world but there is the odd occasion when something happens that really makes you think. This afternoon I was working on my laptop and had to speak to our Administrator at the office so I rang here on my mobile and requested a photograph of a part and told here where to find it on the company server. She attached it to an email and said its sent, she had hardly finished the sentence and it appeared on my computer. The speed astounded me especially if you consider its route ending at my router and the wireless connection to my laptop. Another thought I have had that makes you think is that I spent a long weekend at IF taking loads of pictures, and working hard also , on Monday night I loaded them onto my computer size reduced them and uploaded them onto Picaso on the Web, sent some to Paul for his article and I then informed all of the various Forums of their existence. Had that been a film camera it would have been to much like hard work to get the film processed, copies of prints made and posted off to various parties, at least a week if not longer. The mind boggles at it an worryingly we totally rely on the technology, god help us if it ever went belly up.
