  it is something that works, bits are bits, if they are 
getting from my machine to the other at the other end of 
the connection intact and in the right place with the right
permissions then i'm fine with continuing to use it.

  note that ISPs often don't provide the best and most up-
to-date resources or they may not advertise the recommended
alternatives.  and it takes time to make changes.  i sure 
know that i normally hate "web interfaces" that are sometimes 
available.

  all agreed with, but it is better to not mess some things up
if you can avoid it.  :)
