    I would look for a used Jolida at that price.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    Probably for the shower. :D.

    I might make this my new sig. and I quote from the above link/advertisement

    Without any superfluous articles, the design is quite succinct.

    The device design is full of sense of existence.

    Which flows the air is music instead wind.

    Not A pull cord, but THE cord..............power cord. Just pull the power cord out if the socket and viola........it shuts off. :eek:

    I'll just get some of Billy May's, Mighty Putty and stick my boom box to the wall. Cheaper and it has a detachable pc. :p

    Now, that Yaqin tube player looks interesting. I wouldn't mind at least hearing it.

    Yeah, i was looking around for a CD-2 buffer since i sold my Indeed, and ran across that. I doubt i'd pay for it, but if i got one as a gift i wouldn't complain. :p
