Believe me i tried. I sent multiple messages through the contact form on the vfo website. Sent emails to several people that were higher up/i thought were still at ai2 and either got nothing, canned response, email back that the person i was trying to contact was no longer there or my email got forwarded to customer service. I did bring it up in a thread on list that dan was on but i don't think it was seen. I also tried emailing dan directly and it bounced every time. At this point i'm done. Like i said using my we version of fusion, learning nvda better slowly, have android devices at my side and waiting for google to hopefully put out a updated chromebook pixel.
