FreeFloat:Spectre's reply is the most USEFUL Pro-DIR gear config answer I've seen - it quite simply explains why there's not much point in "reniventing the wheel", but lacks any of the arrogance that seems to run so inherent anytime the word "DIR" appears.
Hey! I didn't say anything about DIR
What I also was trying to convey is understanding and learning the -why- behind different configurations. If you truely understand the reasons behind something, and can [honestly] convince yourself that you can reinvent it better... then by all means; have at it.
I much prefer the person doing it their way, then those that don't know why they do something the way they do it. The former can either learn from your experience, or you can learn from their experience. The latter.... well... the term 'poser' comes to mind.
