Displaying my ignorance once again! :-)

On the other hand, my brain just isn't wired correctly for 
interpreting digital information. I need to see a geometrical 
presentation, I need to see which direction it's changing, and how 
fast it's changing.

I won't mention the appearance issue again if it bothers you, but I 
suspect that it's a big factor creating interest in a meter module.

As far as the size of the meter, I admit that I have a selfish reason 
for preferring a small one: it would be easier for me to swap out an 
8HP module to make room for it. But if the meter module appears, I'll 
accomodate it somehow, no matter if it's larger than that.
