Hi Mostashs. I am starting a flame war and I was wondering if you might have available a few barrels of high-grade aviation fuel and some white phosphorus.

Any study will either be biased by the vendor or not worth the cost of the paper on which it is printed.

You need to evaluate this with your application, with your hardware, with your operating system, with your personnel and overhead costs, or hire a consultant that will.

Anybody got a match?
