Hello Flowers,
Since we don't want commercial vendors to use this network as a route to
selling/defending their products, I think we, as users, have to be equally
responsible about not condemning products without good, careful, considered
evidence. My concern comes in response to a recent negative message about BD
CellQuest software (made after the first day of use!). BD CellQuest software
does, I believe, do the things that this particular person thought it doesn't
do. Network communication has a great deal of power; I think we all have to be
a bit responsible about our use/misuse of this power (sorry about the
pomposity!).
