To spread the "blame" a bit beyond HTF, I found my Waterloo at AVS Forum. Everytime I posted something positive about the 950, I was surrounded by the pack wolves who started tearing me apart, one piece of meat at a time. I finally just stopped posting about the 950.

And that was a forum admin'ed by RAF, one of the most enthusiastic 950 beta testers.

Like all of you, I can't account for the negative passion that has accrued around the 950. But anytime so many people seem to be so cheesed off at you, you must be doing something right.

Let's see: great product, outstanding performance, low price, the best customer service in the business. I guess if I owned something else I'd be hot under the collar, too.
