How did we get from thanking Jim to Vietnam?
 
John where were you stationed?  Cu Chi,  Tay Ninh?
 
I was a grunt 1968 in the 25th Inf.  and YoRoPal no way do I take offense
at your humor.
 
But I have noticed your humor does seem a lot funnier when I'm on my
'mood elevators'.

Tay Ninh. But I was mostly at some fire base or out on patrol. Crook and Washington stand out. I was also air moble. But I was an 11c40 a Mortar man. 81s and 4.2. When I wasn't firing a mortar I was just another grunt.

I didn't either take offense at his joke at first thinking if true he has every right to say anything he wishes about Viet Nam. If not he doesn't. I am involved here with our annual Veterans Parade. The group I am with puts it on each year. I proud to be a founding member of this group. I am also with the American Legion as a service officer. 

I would like to hear from you and what you recall.

Tom, welcome home.

If you need anything that I can do let me know.

Thanks for all the great posts, blokes!

You guys ROCK!

Machine is screaming, Jim is the real deal...

Dimension Pro is still not happy, but now that I have all the Komplete 7 synths,
I may not worry about it.

I can boot a DimPro synth and quickly freeze it - as a workaround,
but perhaps I'll just bail on it for now.
 
Everything else seems to be pretty happy - famous last. : )

I did serve in Viet Nam as a grunt with the 25th div. I was also in the invasion of Cambodia. I do not like it when someone claims service when they never served. If Olpal was in Viet Nam I salute him. If he was simply making a joke then he is a true jerk.
 
 

Well my lottery number (i'm sure you remember John) was 365...no joke.  So, no I didn't serve.  And you won't get any argument from me about me being a true jerk.  In fact, I'm one of the truest.  I lost two very dear friends in that war and have nothing but respect for those that did serve and apologies for the disgraceful way many were treated upon coming home.  Sorry if my humour offends you...but then you're so easily offended I can't worry too much over that.  Rock on, ol pal.  And thanks for your service.

hey John:
 
Yes, I was out in FSB Crook many a night.
 
In fact pulling perimeter guard there was a 'treat' compared to being
in the bush.
 
But, mostly bad memories that I'd sooner not dwell on; If you get my meaning.

I surely do. I do remember the great guys I was privileged to know.

Good to hear from you.

I am not easily offended except where it concerns some few issues. One being Viet Nam. I didn't think anything of your post except it was funny when I first read it. I took you at your word on being in county. It was Danny that ask about it and got me to thinking that perhaps it was not true. We have a lot of people we encounter that claim service when they never did serve. I am not sure why people do that except to gain some respect they never earned. Unfortunately there is no law prohibiting false claims of service as long as no money is exchanged. Then it becomes fraud.  

Your remarks were not earth shattering or a big deal to me. But it did leave a false impression about what you did or didn't do. If Danny had not asked it would have been left alone and you may have been thought to have served. I don't think that was ever your intention. 

Really I don't care much about people that make thoughtless comments about service yet because we have a new generation that have seen awful things and had to endure long separations from their families, I will not let what happen to the Viet Nam vets happen to these new vets. We need to be welcoming to them with open arms and at all opportunities thank them for what they have done for all of us.  

That is the very least one who never served could do.
 

Jim deserves all the accolades.  I bought an i7 from him about a year and a half ago and it has been a great DAW.  Absolutely no problems.  As others have said, Jim is also great to work with--pre and post sale.
