And, BTW, not only do I own a PRS-350, but I also just happen to have once worked for a plastics molding company (this one) and have-- I have no doubt whatsoever-- vastly more knowledge of plastics molding, plastics molding presses, and how and why molding artifacts form than you do.
My goodness, I'm at a loss here. Why are you going out of your way to be such a juvenile ass? Do you always treat people you have a disagreement with this way? What's with this sarcastic "genius" thing? Have I said or done anything that was personally offensive to you? As far as I'm aware, I merely posted my impressions of the 350 on this thread in response to a poster who asked for such. Why does this deserve such rudeness from you?

I didn't just crawl out from underneath a rock, and I've been around long enough to know what brushed aluminum is and what it looks like. The grooves in the spine on the 350 I had looked like substantial wrinkles in the surface material, and the rest of the surface didn't look like that at all. These wrinkles, grooves, whatever you want to call them, were clearly a manufacturing defect and were in no way "brushed aluminum." In all your vast, worldly experience in the manufacturing world, you have heard of manufacturing defects before, right?

Your arrogance and flat-out rudeness is utterly mind-boggling when you try to assume you know better than me what I've held in my own two hands. In any case, I have no intention of arguing further with someone who seems to be intentionally trying to behave as poorly and rudely as possible. You may have the last word now - to borrow your own words, I have no doubt whatsoever that you're the type who needs that sort of thing.
