Moto is very good to us. We cannot complain at all... If we would complain
about somebody this will be Richardson! They have monopolized the RF

If the government is warring about Microsoft monopoly they should take a
hard
look to Richardson practices!

we can not accept the idea that CARS are
the speeders and not the drivers?
