The BC models are known to have problems with the cells. I would have gotten myself one approx. a year ago if I hadn't known about these issues in advance. You can be lucky of course and get a piece of hardware with just works, however, there have been many service cases around the BC models, so I personally would advice against buying one, its too risky in my humble opinion. I agree, its a very pretty piece of hardware. But also a risky buy. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
