Although i'm 50/50 on showing the price on the button, i absolutely see your point! I think for devices that are "known" - like, say, a pair of headphones - i suppose i might want to know the price right away...however,

Thanks for this! I didn't really use BASIC much back in the day, but I am from - ahem - an older time...and the name seemed so familiar, but quite couldn't place my finger on it. so, thanks for clarifying this! :-)

So, let me get this right, Let's Encrypt begins to show how great certs can be even if/when they are not sourced from big centralized monstrous for-profits (and how they really don't deserve to get so much $$$ for stuff that
