Then how would the majority of us learn Gerry?  You suggesting we all 
take PC courses or pay over the odds to call in the 'specialists' for 
every minor problem?

I've tinkered and broken many PC's over the years since my first IBM 
PS/2.  Learned enough that I now build PC's and fix others probs.  I'd 
hazard a guess I'm fairly typical and the folk with IT hardware degrees 
in these NG's are rarer.
