For your slight information, I am not a gov blink. Nope, I actually abhore ADRS for how they destroy 
independence. I ordered the Vario Ultra 20 for $2300. And how, may I ask, is Linux accessibility "far ahead 
of what we Apple and Windows folk" get? Y'all don't even have a good way of making music, OCR, good TTS 
engines, and fewer games than the Mac even has. I find that you Linux fans assume a lot. :)
