	rahul_mcsd  +  51038 Tue, 19 Oct 04 11:41 AM I have seen 'configurable' being used quite commonly in the computer industry. Even I would like to know if this usage is acceptable to the gurus of the forum. rahul_mcsd Joined on Sat, Jul 3 2004 Indore, India Junior Member 68 An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.

	CalifJim  +  51148 Wed, 20 Oct 04 02:51 AM "configurable" ("able to be configured", of course) sounds fine to me. The one that makes me shiver is "actionable" as "that which it is possible to take action upon", and this is becoming more and more common. The committee planned out everything that had to be done. At the end of the meeting they had listed more than 50 actionable items. CalifJim Joined on Mon, Aug 2 2004 California Veteran Member 22,415 "There are no facts, only interpretations" - Nietzsche
