Gentlemen and Rene; <br /> <br />Kim as usual is quite right, let your wallet speak for you. If you are unhappy with the way some equipement is being offered, don't buy it and advise others not too, as well. These manufacturers after all have to make aprofit to stay in business and if you do not buy some products, they will soon stop making them. <br /> <br />Many organisations have marketing departments that don't even know what marketing is and so they do what gut feel tells them and not what the market place wants, this is a good reipe for going broke. <br /> <br />So if you do not like a trend, give it a miss and it will die our through necessity. <br /> <br />To give you an idea of incorrect marketing; "Barbie" has a new blonde Aussie surfie boyfriend called Blain. We here in Australia objected to this name, it is too poofy for us. So I rang all my 5 grandaughters and asked them not to buy any Barbie products. A few of the older ones were a bit scathing but the rest were ok about it and guess what Barbie's sales are still dropping. Good idea bad marketing. <br /> <br />Rgs <br /> <br />Ian; Kawana etc.
