If a $6,000 delayed receipt of goods or service is the biggest regret of your life, I'm afraid I'm going to have to draw a comparison to Steve Carrell in "The 40-Year-Old Virgin"

Okay, what about $10,000? That's what I paid. I took delivery in August 2020 when he was still making the empty promises. Biggest investment failure I've ever had to write off. I guess if it isn't a Bernie Madoff level fraud, it's all good though. Maybe not prison, but I believe Elon Musk's citizenship ought to be revoked at the very least.

This is what new technology has always looked like.

Going from the discrete alphabet soup of ABS, ACC, SC, SLAM to a continuous mechanism is brand new, and not some repackaging treadmill for management to convince investors they're busy.

Apple Lisa was $10,000 when it came out. But it, you know, worked. Came with word processor, spreadsheet, and drawing programs included. A 5MB disk drive, even.
