Yes, life's short and TBH, this is the first time I've been whiny about having a K1 instead of a K3 that was anything past drooling. I was just venting - I'm not going to picket or even think of leaving Amazon ever! In fact, I was just talking about how great the history feature is there since I can go back and see what sonic toothbrush I bought 5 years ago so I can order the correct replacement heads
Dell gives those to everyone. Really what they do is mark the computer up higher then it should be and offer discounts so people feel like they are getting a deal. Kind of like furniture stores and car dealerships. For the most part those stores are happy if people will pay the sticker price but realize that most people will not.

But I get the vent. I love my K1 and was a bit sad when I welcomed my new DXG into the house. Poor Tavar has barely been used since then. Octavian is king, well First Lord anyway....
