OK, good point, but if one doesn't believe in
the technology to begin with, using technology
one believes in to adapt and cope - I've tried
this several times, and *always* failed with
lots of frustration to it. A long time ago, of
course...
It took tons of time, and the result was never
even close to what one could have expected from
the "real/better deal".
Worst part was that all the adapting work felt
completely hopeless because one knew every
single second it was just a totally wasted
effort. So even tho it was programming,
I couldn't enjoy it one bit!
But hey, if you feel like it could work for
you, then don't do it :)
