Of course we are both right.  Dan said that on his system if he performed a 
specific set of instructions it had a specific result.  I said that on my 
system the same set of instructions produced a different result.  We were 
both just describing what we saw.  Unless one of us is lying, which I am sure 
that you are not implying, then each of us sees what he says that he saw, and 
we are both "right". 

The only point at issue is that our systems behave differently, when we might 
have anticipated that they would behave the same.
