Default Re: I must really be out of touch

I worked close to 35 years behind a counter and as a warehouse sales rep. No computer can have as much stored information as there is in a stack of obsolete parts books and in the brain of a really good parts guy. Why you say....? A whole lot of information, obsoleted part numbers, pictures, plus real world experience isn't catalogued into a "pick one from each column" computer program. I have no problem using a computer, as long as I have that stack of obsolete printed information to refer to when the computer leads me down the garden path to oblivion. The computer is just fine doing what it does best, and that is pricing and printing invoices.
