    better to keep your mouth closed and have people think your an idiot than to open it and have people KNOW that you are.

    It's just a change in design and materials but I don't think anyone could pick out the sonic difference until the "RTi" or "CSi" line. Your reply made me chuckle.... :)

    Yeah, especially when you imply that someone is an idiot using incorrect english.

    no1climber, here is another one: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.
