Really- I'm not blaming you for that portion of it. Do what you can. I'm ticked at the overall attitude of 'you lose' for alpha, but that's not your fault. A statement like "Yeah- we'll break alpha, likely. Sorry. Can you pick it up?" would have made all the difference. > It's that simple. My problem is not hardware...
