Good Evening, Zen~Friends,
I love it when this thread is happy, as it seems to be tonight.
A note for Ripple - I, too, was a little uncomfortable about the whole iHybrid thing. Nothing against ego/faceless or anything. I would enjoy trying out his product. Here's the thing: I don't believe in absolute, unquestioning, blind loyalty to any vendor of anything - everyone should be free to spend their $'s whenever/wherever they choose. So I spent a lot of time analyzing my own discomfort and came to some realizations. I like what Mr. White said some time ago about feeling no need to experiment with every new product coming out 'cause he felt like he finally found something worth keeping forever - the Zenesis. Not that I am closed off to trying new things. But, for me, unlike many others here, my disposable $'s are pretty limited. Which means that when I spend money on one thing, I can no longer spend it on another. So, I have to be very selective. I don't want to be unable to buy that dreamy emerald green, shiny fish-scale Mini with the 5 ml tank, if it ever gets produced. So, I'll save my limited funds to send to Mike for the next latest, greatest thing. Maybe it's different for you, Ripple, but after closely examining my own situation, I've decided not to buy anything from another vendor, nor to spend my money in the Classifieds, when, with patience, I can put my money in Mike's pocket and KNOW I'll be happy I waited.
But more power to all of you that can afford more experimentation. Ya know I loves all ya'll!
