...The look is industrial/utilitarian which is the only potential issue with the visual design that some individuals may find...

Huhhhh?...I think you may be missing the point, the alumi Reos aren't meant to be a piece of bling...if "individuals" want carbon fiber decals, led's and ridicules laser etched logos there's plenty of off shore crap to choose from...Sure the Woodvil's are pretty but the alumi family is "function over form" defined...there's not a lot of honest, "as advertised" products out there these days...I like them just the way they are (in fact I'd be ok if Rob went back to the old school hard corners on the back instead of the soft corners, ergo thing)

woh, that was a bit of a rant :blush:...JK...welcome Hg :D

Oh that's fine. Product aesthetics come way behind ergonomics in my book when a piece is functional. Overall, the ergonomics are very good on the REO, The aesthetics have grown on me. Overall, I was around industrial so much I don't get all warm and fuzzy from it. However, it is a nice design.

Off topic yes, but I'm intrigued, would your avatar and name be referring to A1C the diagnostic test for diabetes/potential diabetes?

Yes the proper terminology is Glycated Hemoglobin and is often expressed as HgA1c, HbA1c, or just A1c when referring to lab work. The key defining relevance of an A1C value is that it is an exact snapshot of a person's glucose level when that red blood cell (hemoglobin) was Glycated which means essential to add sugar. As new blood cells and old bloods cells are created and destroyed all of the time. The A1C value provides an average glucose level over the life of the blood. Which is generally 1-3 months time period.

Obesity and Diabetes are quickly overtaking tobacco as public health enemy number 1. Personally I believe if numbers were reported less biased that they would indeed be the number public health issue. Any former smoker or smoker that dies may have their death marked as tobacco related. Similar to how a person carrying alcohol in the trunk has an "alcohol" related accident.
