    no one makes $200 netbooks anymore. Tablets killed that.

    I really don't get why they went with a windows only app. It's a really simple program. I don't see any difficulty porting or compiling it to linux/mac. Mac is based on BSD so the whole mac costs to much to support is complete BS.

    The Vortechs wireless work with anything. Why couldn't they have put the same tech into the Radion? I have to wonder if their development was done in house.

    I'll still love the pumps. But, I expect a company to have their technology be cross compatible.

    but the more I research it the more I am disappointed what research have you found to dislike this light other than not being able to use mac to program them? I have 2 over my 120 and love them

    The lights are great, the software is coming along, and mac users love to argue.


    Thats what I use even though I have PC desktops. Works great.

    So, I thought that we could have an intelligent conversation about radion software architecture choices. Instead, several forum users have chosen to denigrate and insult. As usual, the Internet "community" disappoints.

    Carry on, I'll take my discussion elsewhere.
