Chuck - I have both the TCR and the C&W. In my short experience it seems that the TCR always has what I'm looking for where as the C&W often does not have the chip. The C&W is beautiful and easy to read and I know there are some almost fanatic supporters of the C&W so my question is WHY? What am I missing? And PLEASE - I mean no disrespect to the C&W or its supporters. I am only seeking knowledge ... grasshopper!
