Caryl, My apologies, I thought you were talking about this afternoon's video, not that one. Yes that is the XO-4 (although with a clear bottom unit).
I believe Mike pegged the Sesame Street answer. We are getting the Sugar for the XO-4 from Sugarlabs, and I don't think they've made any startling changes to the Journal. This is just a new spin on it. I don't know how to delete an entry from the Journal, do you ?
