Re: Superhub is nowhere near as bad as people say!

And most Netgear routers get reviews that contain the phrase "the range could be better".

A lot of the newer Linksys/Cisco consumer routers have internal antennae too and they are regularly credited with good range.

So its a Netgear flaw rather than an inability to have internal antennae and decent performance.

Not really as many companies are now going down the download only route and vinyl is used mainly by dj's, try buying a turntable.

Most people nowadays will just go to iTunes as it is quicker and more convenient and turntables cost money and take up space.

Not really it is still a good comparison as vinyl is a retrograde step in most peoples eyes which compared to people saying you want a VMNG300 is very much the same but at least vinyl is manufactured albeit in small quantities unlike the VMNG300 which is now defunct.

problem for your point is the vmng300's are still been supplied by ceo office on request. This is a good thing for your company so not sure why you trying to pretend it isnt happening.

vinyl is a work of art as well.

Ah the old analogue v digital argument. Though I'm not sure how it applies to digital transmission medium

I expect if you make a CD the size of vinyl LP then you could improve the quality but how many people would notice the difference

I have never denied that the CEO's office may be able to get you a VMNG300 but supplies will be finite which I have said on many occasions.

Re: Superhub is nowhere near as bad as people say!

Ok, so this topic has gone from me saying the super-hub isn't as bad to people talking about vinyl records and hens teeth? LOL
