Well, lets be honest. Adding Plus to the name because of an MD'd part is indeed a marketing play. Most technology manufacturers use terms like Rev.2 or UR2. Not really confusing.
Might as well call it the Axe-Fx II XL Minus then.
Just saying....
Fanboys will dislike my post, but I call it as I see it.
P.S. Still luv ya Cliff!
Potentially, it is confusing, if the customer can expect to install new firmware on anything like a regular basis. Fractal's customers are used to downloading firmware based on what model they have. That's simple and pretty foolproof, and even still, Axe users sometimes download and try to install the wrong firmware. If they have to keep track by both model and revision number, that increases the chance of making a mistake while updating new firmware.Well, lets be honest.

I have a sneaking suspicion that adding a + to the end of the name required a hell of a lot less effort than adding revisions and crap.Well, lets be honest.

List price for the XL was 2,999 and the XL+ is 3,599. Changing the display changed the list price $599? Just sounds a little high for changing just the display.
The price is the same.
Adding plus to the name is to stem 9 million emails about why their device wont upgrade firmware.
I reckon that little "+" could as much as halve that traffic
How much different is the display? For me, that was one of the things that could've been improved upon the most.
Why are we still discussing them when we could be hassling Cliff in the G3 threads? lol
