Al, make at least one right thing, as seems you have time for the cause : buy at own expenses some tools like Pc3000 Udma, Salvation, Atola, HRT... Then buy a domain, and, paying attention NOT TO INFRINGE COPYRIGHTS AND PATENTS, Publish all your discoveries and all the stuff you can collect. Be sure to answer and solve EVERY PROBLEM to all the people that whine for data or can't put in practice or are simply too lazy . So you will understand that there are things called business, capitalism, economy and WORK seen from other point of view, and maybe consider that there are other reasons if things are not going the way you wish - especially here. Regards. Period.
I run my own business (not DR) and agree whole heartedly that there is a thing called business buy I dont think that any information published here is seriously going to do you or any other DR company damage.
I would absolutely be over the moon to get a PC3000 or any of those other tools, but alas for me this is a hobby, so I experiment with what I have got available.
And yes there are people that will whine, there are people who cant follow instructions and there are people who are lazy - the same can be said for any of the other forums on the internet devoted to hundreds of different topics, yet lots of information is publically shared on the other boards about how to fix things and knoweldge others have gained. They share this information freely, presumably to further the community and help out others.
I have friends who fix computers, they share information on forums, but they still run successful businesses repairing computers - despite that they share knowledge gained on the internet. In fact they still get plenty of customers coming to them - even tho in many cases the answer can be found in google. So their business does not suffer simply because the solution exists publically on the internet.
Nobody is suggesting that every problem should be able to be solved either.
You seem so adverse to sharing of information I dont understand why you participate here?
