Hi, Mr. Zonbu,

I did read your blog, and I’m intrigued.

But not yet convinced. An awful lot of “inside baseball” there, which is good for you and me, but not for people looking for that inexpensive (toaster like — plug it in, put bread in and make toast) applicance.

But, I’ll keep reading.

Thanks for stopping by.

I dunno Mudge.

I’ve barely turned on my $1200+ desktop for a week, since I got my Zonbu.

It can’t do it all, but it is my day-to-day desktop at home now.

I wasn’t sure if it would work so I went ahead and ordered one. I’ve been relatively pleased, although it needs some more polish.

I’m blogging about it here http://mrzonbu.wordpress.com/
