    Since I reformatted my computer, Adobe Acrobat Reader now works. So, this is the first issue of Affordable$Audio I've read. What a great idea! And you've executed it so well, too! I'm going to have to go back and read the previous issues now, too!

    I see where you are trying to compile a list of independent dealers to provide in your magazine. I'd like to recommend one. Elite AudioVideo Inc. was started by Bart Near. He used to work at Now! Audio Video in Winston-Salem, NC, but left when they were bought out by Tweeter and started his own store. I found him to always be extremely nice and helpful whenever I went in, which really stood out to me considering I was a 16/17 year old kid who never really showed interest in buying anything. Anyhoo, he strictly sells new gear (as far as I know), and carries both audio and video equipment. His website isn't very extensive, but it does list the brands he carries and his store's location. If you want me to email this to you, I will.

    Thanks for the e-rag! I just printed (well, am still printing) it out!
