Well if you couldn't repair or exchange any internal system without having to book a hilariously expensive "certified seller" in some shiny station somewhere out there*, and maybe without any scoops and hatches save some kind of radio beacon port, it would be appropriate indeed ...

*) or have to go crazy yourself by hacking it with insane amounts of very small screws and lots of heavily-fortified lids and covers, of course.

This is funny to me as I have an Apple Genius Bar appointment today to have my ipad replaced yet again. LOL

Really? It's actually called the Apple Genius Bar?

Good grief...

But it IS covered in lots of pointless white plastic and effect lighting, and it's essentially the same as another ship but 3x the cost. The main difference is that the iEagle actually is marginally better than its identical competition.

Had me one of them appointments the other day (for my daughters defunct iPhone 5s) as well and it was spectacularly useless as expected.
You have to love how utterly misplaced American customer service values fail in the UK. Even more so as I am on night shifts and had to get up early just to make the appoint that I waited a week for. And no its still broken but then it's at least 15 months old so waaay past it clearly!!!


Wow... I didnt realise I have that much vitriol in me this late into my shift... I should go to bed :D

Totally Off Topic.
I used the Apple Store App to make my appointment, on a Sunday night while drinking beer and playing ED. I chose the date and time. Arrived 15 minutes before, checked in and waited 5 minutes. A "Genius" called my name, came over introduced himself. I showed him the problem in 30 seconds. He opened his ipad, looked up the status, checked stock, wandered off for a replacement and returned to send me on my way after i signed for it. Total time from the point I entered the store and had it replaced and was walking out? 8 minutes.

Back on Topic:

Has anyone tried HS Missles with a beam loadout on the Imp Eagle? I had a RailGun/HS Missle on a Sidewinder and loved it.
