Here's the reply I got from computergeeks, and the email I sent to them: ---------------------------------------- Thank you for this email - we will be pulling this item down till we can confirm or deny the issue.

Being an electrical engineer I was worried when I saw this item being sold as a grounding system. Knowing my own limitations, I asked a group of other EEs and the consensus is that such a device could not work given current technology. A link to this question in particular is given here: http://esdsupport.esdsystems.com/qanda/question.asp?showsidebar=no&action=question&id=17 While I've seen you sell devices which I would feel mis-represent their capabilities (X-Ion, for instance), this device is different. Previous instances would result in no harm to the end user. In this case, someone using this devcie and expecting it work may be surprised when it does not, and it actually destroys a component. I appreciate your time and consideration in this matter. -Adam Davis ---------------------------------------- -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you.
