Jack ... most of us here share your analysis paralysis. Not to worry, it's not fatal.
In this case, in particular, however, I do believe you have a lot going for the purchase ... past positive experience, very positive (if somewhat limited) reviews, and a pleasing aesthetic (we engineers, scientists, and computer geeks tend to say aesthetics do not matter ... we are wrong). If the looks turn you on, that's a good thing. I know function over form is the rule, but function AND form ... ooh la la.
I predict you will be pleased with these, and am prepared to stop by next summer to verify. I've always wanted to see Mobile, and with a brother in Santa Fe, NM, and daughter having a place in Park City , UT, a cross country trek is in the cards for summer/fall 2015.
