Response to What is the best film for beginners?

I don't know about you guys, but I've been shooting for only bout' two years now (yes, I'm only 20)and when I started, I had to use kodak T-400CN because it cost 17-20 bucks to have real b&w developed (per roll), and took 2-3 weeks at best before you could see your results.... Really, until the beginner in question decides he's gonna invest in a darkroom, (like I did quickly!!) he's gonna get more short-term satisfaction out of his new hobby (it's what kept me goin') if he can have his pics in an hour instead of weeks. T400CN is a good film for beginners, but TMX and HIE are better for pro's like me (yes, yes, I get paid just like the rest of you guys and gals out there...)
