Check the archives of this list; this is a question that comes up again and= =20 again. The brief answer is: no, not unless you are a masochist with time to= =20 waste and capable of an infuriating attention to detail (do you play nethac= k?=20 do you play each charater to win _and_ as an extinctionist? then you're=20 in :) ).

I think the old luxury-goods adage applies: if you have to ask, you can't=20 afford it. =2D-=20 Don't worry, 't ain't no shame to be stupid - ol' mouse.
