Wow, I love how they added a large, uneccessary piece of glass to the front of it. I just know that it will stay perfectly clean and translucent and not get covered with dust and fingerprints and look like crap.<BR/><BR/>Call me when they have a display that hovers eerily over my desk with no visible enclosure or cables. And I can move it with my mind.Gerard Humphreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00967339418352220168noreply@blogger.com
