At 43" you're in luck, and not needing a tuner, there are still some options

There's a similar story of the sorts with "libertarian" ideology (a word stolen from French Anarchists - who were without a doubt leftists). Milton Friedman was paid by the oil industry to come up with it, and they peddled it through the Real Estate Association of America.

That is indeed the direction the management has proposed if CUPW is to be believed (I don't doubt it a second).

Also the "desktop" web app requires to be paired with an instance of the mobile app.

I wished moxie would spend a little less time flying helicopters and trekking in Tajikistan, and reflect on the need to support non proprietary platforms.

Flare? It's hardly complete. Can't even use it as a primary device.

As for the desktop app, it's not exactly mobile oriented.

You should read your own link, because it also mentions that by the end of his term, most disapproved

I clearly stated "at first". Mind you by the end of his term a majority still thought it was the right thing to do.

It was viewed as illegitimate inside the US too.

You're recollection of events is clearly skewed. Something like 80% of the population approved of it at first. Meanwhile there were protests in the millions of people around the world against it.

A Gallup poll made on behalf of CNN and USA Today concluded that 79% of Americans thought the Iraq War was justified, with or without conclusive evidence of illegal weapons.

Yeah no, I'm gonna disagree. Being outside of the US at the time, most people did think that. And yes, obviously I'm talking about Jr since Sr didn't get re-elected. 9/11 was a full three years before the election of his second term. And most importantly before he started the war in Iraq. A war that was widely viewed as illegitimate outside the US.

Remember when the entire world was convinced there was absolutely no way Bush, an idiot, fascist, religious bigot, etc could get re-elected?

Might I ask, why exactly do you feel the need to have a webapp for CAD rather than a hard client?
