Read what I wrote ... "and that is why *I* wouldn't buy it". *I*.
Not
you, not Tim, but me.

Did I say that? Why do you have to make everything so confrontational?

You have a way of my twisting words and presenting them in a way that is
far from the truth.

Once again you seem to think that once you have a certain amount of
money then gained value for money from something no long applies.

All I was doing was offering an opinion, a different point of view. Did
I say Tim shouldn't buy one? No, I just offerred by opinion and
highlighted a possible option where you could spend less money and get a
better system. From your responses, I now wish I hadn't bothered trying
to help.
