Soundproof (I'm not going to reply with quote or this thing will get very lengthy), I was not at all calling for a cessation of discussions about the brand, I was essentially looking for this one!

In Soviet Russia, system dock you! This product was knocking around for so long I honestly didn't realize we were still going to make it! I think I saw the prototype about 3 years ago.
