Well, generally, yeah -- I was being cute. But tehre was that insertteing study that shwoed how txet with intiial and final lettres correct but intrenal ones jubmled was still surprisingly intlleigible ... (Yah, I know -- readable but bloody annoying.) And then there's pre-standardization-of-spelling historical documents and literature, and transliteration between languages using different alphabets where no consistent standard has been adopted. So I'd say that spelling usually matters (but that it often matters quite a lot when it does matter).
As for the memory cards, I'll need to go peer into cases to see which machine needs what, but I'm pretty sure most of those will be useful. Thanks.
I want to copy-edit your post! Besides that, it scrambles my synapses.
I'm going to link to that tech writing humour page on my website, with a comment that's a cleaned up paraphrase of "Just shoot me if I ever write something like that!" (I'm going to go broke doing this, aren't I? *sigh* )
