Yes, I may need to have my XYL calls yours... but I'm going to try a couple of tried and true tactics first. :-)

|a

|problems.

|Would it really be $1,000 - $2,000 more fun? I doubt it.
|
|IT SELLS ITSELF.
|
|I sold my brand new Brand X rig when I put the Orion II on the desk.
|
|Keeping the Omni VII cause it is a huge value, also, and sooooooo easy
|to run.
|
|Just MY take.
