Im going to try a different approach from that of my fellow hobbyists...
You have firstly come on a forum of supports and enthusiast, and disregarded their rules but not making an introduction, this is like a Man City fan sitting in Man Utd stand on derby day.
Lets look at other developers of front end technological/electrical equipment, Sony for example and the yellow light with the play station, Microsoft and the red light of death, these items I would think are used, by a lot more people than VU+ Boxes.
If you do feel very strongly that something should be done, then you are going about getting people 'onside' in the total wrong way, at least in my opinion.
