Always glad to be of assistance. I did, however, fail to mention Toshiba as a brand worth considering. I have no personal experience with them, but they have always enjoyed a very strong following among business travelers. Give them a look while you are at it.
I couldn't get your link to go, but Branson is also one of my former hometowns. I lived there pre-boom. In and around Branson for about 13 years, I guess. It is now one of those oddities of a place where rapid growth and the influx of outsiders that comes with it has created two societies within the same town - the originals, and the newcomers. Back in the olden days (70's), I had friends who had grown up in houses without water and electricity. That was kind of hard for me to grasp at first, coming from a metropolis like Neosho. There are a bunch of good folk in that area. Real folk. When you grow up without indoor plumbing and no electricity, trying to impress others is a foreign concept. Basics. The kind of stuff that builds character. I think I'm gonna go back someday. Not for a visit, but to live there. I know, things have changed. But some of those original folks are still around. They still have character, and that is something that can be passed along from generation to generation. Yep, I think I am just going to go back someday. Then, I guess it will be my present and well as a former hometown.

Be happy and careful
