Well, Chris, I like my Tesla Model S 70D very much. Hong Kong is good for EV
because we are a small city.

Elecraft K3s = Porsche
Flex 6000 = Tesla

Ditto we still don't use them.
Our users have a choice of laptop or iPad/Surface other than a desktop thin
client on our VM Ware network.
90% choose the Win7 laptop. They're more expensive, slower, and break more
often than the thin client but not as often as the iPads. The Surface's are new
so no experience base with them yet. Our hardware group absolutely hate touch
screens. I'm a Network Engineer...I have no use for them either.
My brother does IT for a school district that equipped all of their middle
school kids with cutting edge iPads. 700 of them. My brother had to get good at
replacing the very expensive coated touch screens that the evil empire said
mere mortals couldn't replace. He got no help from Apple other than expensive
parts. That experiment lasted three years and they switched to Chrome books.
I guarantee as sure as I'm sitting here *that touch screen will fail within a
year...if not sooner*, and you've got no chance to fix it yourself. I can order
parts from Elecraft for all my rigs and fix them.
No sweat.
I'm curious why is direct sampling SDR's like the 7300 are supposed to be the
second coming why Icom stuck with the traditional superhet architecture on it's
"flagship" 7851? Maybe they realize the technology is at least 5 years away
from being competitive. Everybody is ignoring W4TV's 800lb Gorilla, ADC
overload.
