Well, can't speak for the rest of us, but as far as I'm concerned, I'm STILL trying to be helpful. I want anyone who is thinking about buying their first turbine, and needing to do it on a relatively tight budget, to have as much info as possible about the quality and reliability of anything they intend buying.

I'd hate to see someone who is short of cash and trying to get into turbines as economically as possible scrimp by to save up the money for a turbine only to end up having something that lets him down ... and now, since he was short of cash to begin with, he's even shorter of cash for attempting to buy a replacement engine. Better that he have an idea what the reliability is like before he plonks down his hard-earned cash - and you know what - if his choice then is JJ, then power to him -- but let that be an educated choice based on the long-term viability of the engine.
