[TenTec] BULL: "Disguising" Omni VI

[Bill Cotter]

Jim et al,

I think the claim of FRAUD is unfair and unreasonable, to label an
owner upgrading his OMNI to what Ten Tec themselves claim is
"OMNI-6+" equivalence........ Including, changing the front panel
to reflect the changes. Ten Tec could have made a few extra bucks
offering to do this themselves (option-4).

When they sell you the upgrade, that's exactly what they want you
to believe before you plunk down your $dabloons$! However, if one
changes the series/serial number, that is beyond ethical bounds, in
my opinion.
