^^ this above is all that really matters IMO. D-baggery in marketing practices aside, performance product at Walmart prices.... market says they win. My brand loyalty ends at my wallet. If the companies that I have previously supported can't do better (either in terms of cost or worthwhile features), then that's their loss I guess. The only reason I see myself not buying one of these for my next tank is that I want everything to be hooked up through an Apex controller. If this thing ever gets that kind of a link-up... I will kiss my vortech's goodbye.
