Absolutely. The treatment can be very expensive, and the smell is god-awful.

As a pharmacist, it’s nice to see these types of articles on the verge. Def appreciate medically-related articles.

I have had a couple of patients that needed this procedure. This probably comes in 4th or 5th line after the preferred treatments (flagyl, vancomycin, dificid). A major issue with the procedure is that it can be difficult to find someone to do it. The hospital in town can do it now, and Mayo is only a few hours away as well, where theres another doc that will do it.

It’s great that there’s something like this to help patients out, as c. diff can easily be life threatening.

I thought the “I’m a Mac” ads were pretty dickish.

Lol, I signed on to comment just because of that line. It’s an advertisement, not a Verge head-to-head (although that’s just as bad as advertisements too ;))

Those are all single tasks. What are you trying to prove, that they can fit a lot of buttons on the screen?

With the USB 3.0 port hanging out round back, I think it would be fine to have things run off the external hard drive. No source on that though

I doubt Microsoft will have similar sales, although that would be boss. Make it as easy as steam, and throw in a sale or two with dozens of cheap indie games, and maybe everyone will go for it

Thanks for the response, Sean. No backwards compatibility is a problem, although not a dealbreaker for me. Glad you agree that it listening isn’t a huge deal.

/Agree, very much looking forward to it. Thanks for the comment.
