You are right. A porthole only makes sense if you are a) on a boat looking out or b) outside a boat looking in!  :)p1

Round LCD displays are like round TVs they had in the 60s -  a bit awkward!
And only really make sense if you are looking at the rpm/speedo dial of a Corvette!

You might have guessed it - but even 164.000 taps are never going to be good enough.


Meet "BORIS"  (Binary Ordinary Robbery in Extremis) £ 24.000 | 500.000 taps (Bargain at only £0.05/tap - same as the Hugo!)
New cutting edge bespoke truly stunning 3D Spheric Holographic Porthole!

Contrary to Moore's Law our DACs are getting more expensive every year! But you don't mind that - do you matey?!
Hell we own the proprietory WTF [What the …] multitap filter technology.
Cause more taps is better no matter what! And if you are not happy with that, just go and buy any old cheap American Schiit.
You know it's true because it's me John F., MD Chord Electronics LTD., Kent, England!

And you also might have guessed we are already working on the follow-up model which will be called
"TOM" (Take all our bloody money) 1.000.000 taps, which will be available next year for the same price/tap (you do the maths).


PS: If you still don't believe me, just scoot over to our mates at WTF-HIFI's website to check out the compulsory 5-Star, honest, hand on heart, "Does the bear shit in the woods" review. You won't be disappointed! Forget about Multibit -> Multitap's the word and Rob's your uncle!

Taxi!

Rarely are brownie points and lulz so well-deserved.
