    I talked with Tobin a few times. Man wants to make sure you purchase the right thing once. Now that medical issues are pretty much done, can now start saving for the DSS rig.

    Tobin is all about the "tough love". :-)......tells it like it is.

    I think Tobin 'interviews' all new customers, if you pass the interview, he puts a note on your file upgrading you from 'clueless' to 'has a clue', then you can safely place future orders without another interview, as I've had my subsequent DSS orders ship automatically (only calling to confirm I still want my requested parts if they are on back-order, for example, otherwise shipping things without further incident.)
