If my vacuum can remove even one spec of dirt that yours misses, then mine is better than yours - even if there's no proof that mine would have picked up as much dirt as yours...

bagless kirby conversion

I'm not very impressed with the design, but there's a guy who offers a way to convert Kirbys from bag to dirt canister.  Unfortunately, it doesn't offer dual cyclone or better technology.  It looks like you clean the pleated filter after every use.  I think I'd rather pay for bags than this gimmick.

Carmine,

You've got a "Kick Me" sign on your back, only you're slow to know it.

Your reading abilities/eye sight are lacking.  It says kiss me.  Front and back.  Great way to make female friends!  Should try it if you ever get to Las Vegas

Tell me, if DC07 is so good why did dyson discontinue?  Why did it never rise to the level of being THE signature dyson model?

I blame most of the failure on James Dyson's ego.  Combine that with following the Hoover path of offering toooooo many new models rather than improving a good thing.

However, the DC07 put a whooping on the signature "Z" Hoover that you proclaimed would cause the demise of Dyson.  Boy those Z's sure make good boat anchors though.

I guess if you use a $2000 Rainbow to pick up water in your boat and paint your vehicle, it's logical for you to use a $400 HOOVER Z as an anchor.

I did not pay close to $2000 for the Rainbow.  Using a Z for anything other than a vacuum is logical.  BTW, are you LOGICALLY using gasoline with nitrogen in it?

Hardsell,

There's no failure and there is no ego and there is no following Hoover.  Instead, since 2002 Sir James gave the industry suits an education and handed their asses to them.  Smaller men would indeed develop a big ego, but not Sir James.

Here here.  Sir James for Prime Minister.  If he can do all this for the vacuum industry, he's worth a shot at prime minister.  Perhaps the ego would even help.

Oh Carmine, you’re still reeling from my “Kick Me” comment.  I thought it was hilarious and fitting.

Sir James is not going to be Prime Minister, but instead hes been asked to be the UK’s innovation Point-Man.

P.S.  Is it true...  Nevada residents get a free ride (do not pay state tax) by all the money made by the countless strip clubs and legalized whoring that's in and near the beautiful Las Vegas - baby!

My how you flatter yourself with your own praise.  No wonder you do not call Sir James an egotist, you are a bigger one than he.

Why do you consider this a "free ride"?   Do you think government is entitled to your money?

When Carmine criticizes real-men while hunkering down under a tax shelter (the Las Vegas whorehouses and drink to get drunk beverage industry) one has to ask...  what the hell is this guy doing giving business advise to a self-made billionaire.
