No worries, my point is meant as tongue-in-cheek (and as food for thought for some) : I'm one of the people that's involved in the (sometimes) billions of $$$$'s that it can cost to develop new cars, and we spend most of our working day on balancing safety / performance / economy / emissions / noise & vibration / handling / interior space & usability / durability / serviceability / etc. etc. etc, while also trying to fulfil the myriad new legislative actions that may or may not come to pass, and attempting to keep costs down... but all people really want is a decent "stereo"... Smiley face... grin
