Perhaps I am being naive... but I never, for a moment, thought Dave was suggesting that Elecraft do any such thing. I think his post was more a commentary on some people wanting Elecraft to do everything, and the likely result that some people would pay more for a given monitor or keyboard, or whatever, if it had the Elecraft name on it. I also think we have probably beaten this thread into the ground.
