Default Tips
Could someone shed some light on "fixed tips" or "replacement tips" ??? I am wondering if one out performs the other?
Thanks,
Jim

Jim, in the thread just below this - Colwood Pens - there is a discussion concerning fixed and interchangeable tips.

Usually you purchased fixed tips for the profiles that you know you will be using constantly. The interchangeables are great for those profiles that you either just want to try out or may need on rare occassion.

She's right. The tip controversy is just a bunch of hokey!
