Can't believe I'm "hopping" in here. I used to be of the opinion that I needed the best equipment available. I told myself that for this reason: If I had the best hardware, then any failurre to produce quality products was due to my shortcomings. I wanted to eliminate every factor but myself. These days, as I grow older and a bit more wise, I think I would wish for nothing more than the ability to use what I have and have the time to use it. And to make a few people smile or think. People all over the world are using average equipment and "kicking my ass".
