Personally, I think black is a very "classy" color. I'd
even like to have a black automobile, notwithstanding the
fact that I live in the Arizona desert! I prefer K3 black
to K2 gray, but I suppose that's just me. Black is a
neutral color (as are colors like tan and gray), but I think
it contrasts better with other colors better than other
neutral colors do. Black is actually "the absence of
color", so I guess that's why it works that way for me.
Anyway, I vote to keep rolling out the products in black.
But if you want colors, take a look at that new german
transceiver (Hilberling? or whatever). It costs a fortune,
but I saw it at Dayton, and you can get it in all sorts of
colors--some were pretty wild! Personally I thought some of
the offered colors would only look good in a bordelo, but
everyone to his or her taste!

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 in different colors?
This brings to mind a quote attributed to Henry Ford. When
asked what colors the Model T was available in he replied:
"You can have any color you want as long as it's black."
Hey, if it's good enought for Henry, Eric & Wayne, it's
good enough for me! :)

Just black works fine for me! It compliments my jeans
and scruffy shirt quite nicely.
If it came in different colors, I might have to buy an
all new wardrobe to match my new "accessory", and that
would make the purchase of a K3 quite an overall
expenditure. I might have to have a different K3 to
match my current mood too, so more expenses would result.
:-) Now, where did I put those credit card
applications offering cheap credit?
