Now, are we to believe that Hooked Again works with MotionPlus? That little logo says ‘100% compatible MotionPlus design’. I think that may only pertain to the fishing rod accessory itself!

“At the late ’80s, there was only Kaga Tech, an electronics distributor that used ‘Taxan’ as their US/Europe consumer brand. Largely they worked in monitors, and I remember all the Apple IIs in the middle-school lab sporting off-brown Taxan amber-screen jobbies.
