Default A BIG UP TO ORION

Without so much as a "thanks for the memories" for 5 years of faithful
service, Orion Telescope has recently kissed-off Virgo Astronomics as its
manufacturer of parallelogram binocular mounts and replaced us with cheaper
Chinese copies of our products.

Well, I guess that's the way of the world, and maybe even a left-handed
complement of our products - mimickery being the highest complement and all.
Same thing happened with many of their other suppliers, I hear.

Many of Orion's customers would routinely call us - from all over the
world - regarding product questions and requests for accessories and
upgrades, I guess because Orion didn't carry the parts and couldn't help
them.

I wonder who they'll call now........oh, well........
