John,
My sincerest apologies if you thought my response was combative in any
way. I was merely pointing out that I, personally, wouldn't mind having a
laptop available to me in my work space. As I said, going cordless is
definitely preferred, but I doubted that they were building bluetooth
directly into the Mitutoyo devices, I'm not saying that I know they are
not, just that I didn't think it was viable. I've been known to be wrong
from time to time though.
If you are capable of doing all calculations in your head, then you are a
better man than I, and my hat is off to you. When, on the blind handyman
list, someone asked what the proper angle would be to cut for a triangle
26 inches across the base, and 72 inches along the hypotenuse, I
definitely went to my calculator, even though I know it is simply the
inverse cosine of 26/72.
Again, I sincerely apologize if I came across as combative, I was just
making some personal comments in response to yours.
