To each his own, of course. But that doesn't mean I have to spend the time to listen.
Yeah I read it. It was a pretty clueless article...
It didn't go into anywhere near the depth required.
Sad thing is, a large audience in Oz will read this, & see it as gospel.

I had a PM convo with one user from China the other day, & he reckons it's priced fairly well.
About $30AUD less than our best prices (on avg) IIRC...
But it'll still have to come down a lot more, if it's to really gain traction there.
