Next summer A/C went out and it was days of hassle dealing with them and their service guys. Called up my neighbor's guy again - he had the part on his truck and fixed in an hour. YMMV.

Over 800 rating for the latest rate. Nothing out of pocket for any of them - even managed to always roll any closing costs into the loan.

It often auto switches incorrectly when I try to manually change inputs. It's so frustrating I plan to add at least three more HDMI cables in the wall to try as a workaround.

It's not that we overdo technology. The problem is everyone is so damn greedy and no one wants to do any development. Get your product to market as quick as possible so you get money as quick as possible. Who cares about the end user. And who cares about development since the next thing will be out before you can improve your existing garbage product.
