WARNING: Off topic.
Congratulations to all the new parents out there! Double that if it's
your first! I have a 2 month old myself. Our third child.
I can surely identify with wanting more SB2's. The recent reduction in
price and the discount on international shipping is very tempting
indeed.
Good to hear.

So true. Our toys may be more expensive but at least we don't

Slimdevices has been a pretty standup company for the consumer.
One revision to the hardware was an upgrade to the VFD display to give
it graphical abilities. They did NOT have to offer to current owners
an upgrade path to the better display, but DID and even gave us a

Umm what?
Not suggesting they have to post their entire financials!
Most companies, public or private, give some sense of their company and
market strength. Perception is too often not reality in the tech biz.
As for "if they drop dead tomorrow you still have a functioning
system". True, but for how long?
However, it is also a reasonable request given the huge quantity of
apparently solid companies and products which vanish leaving users
stranded.
I disagree. I don't think it's a reasonable request. Even huge
companies that are still in business drop products.

Fair enough, many private companies typically do not want to disclose
financials, there are good reasons for this. Mostly, it keeps
competitors guessing.
