this is a question we’re talkin’ about in school, which works out nicely cuz I’ve been curious!! what’s the difference and why would one choose one over the others?
Thanx!

Thank you for jumping in Mike. I was just taking a stab at it since nobody had responded. I’m going to check out your links as well.

Have a great day.
