    Hey araT - congrats on the new instrument! I.A.N.A.L., so take my comments for what they're woth; but I'll second tjcurtin here... The saddle is really low - illustrated by the VERY shallow break angle of the strings. -- Does 'neck resetting' mean anything to you? : ... neck resets are to...

    GPS on the way!

    For no-frills get-me-there gadgets the entry level Garmins always get's good reviews. Bought one for my parents and I agree. https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=134 Consider wheter you would like TMC as an option http://www8.garmin.com/traffic/fm/index.jsp, then you wil have to move a bit...

    Can someone please explain this?

    Boy that was a scary story pieman - wishing you a speedy recovery... Ditto... Says reason, but instinct sometimes takes over, as mentioned. I have on one occasion shocked myself by adminstering a (very moderate) punch to the body of a person I was arguing with, under the influence of a couple...

    Anyone visiting Denmark shortly?? :)

    I just did - although the purchase was a 160 GB harddrive, a replacement for the 40 GB in my laptop that always holds 39 GB no matter how often I throw stuff away! :) Had my eye on that for a while too, and suddenly the price dropped 35% to only DKK 260 = US$ 53 ... very cheap... That will...

    Anyone visiting Denmark shortly?? :)

    Thank - You're right, given the exchange rate of 0,8 from SEK to DKK there'a a slight saving (300 DKK = 60 US$)... I'll see if I can contain my GAS! :p

    DO NOT try this one!!

    I'm warning you, don't! It has got to be one of the best and most time hogging little games I have ever tried, a real classic... Slingshot penguin Kevin

    Anyone visiting Denmark shortly?? :)

    I am SO looking forward to this flying thing! :dude: You're right, it can be found on ebay and shipped to Denmark - but the biggest obstacle is my fear of it being picked up in customs, adding tax and VAT will quickly spoil the deal... :eek:

    How fast are you? (sheep content)

    Right, and now I sort of do it again... :AOK: My best for a single sheep was just under 0.12... I seems to me the traffic light is more fair = far more consistent and reproducible: The 15 or so tries where I felt 'that was just right' all returned 0.187 or 0.188 sec... And I think the sound...

    Ever try to clean your iPod ?

    One of the best SOUNDING players... - is in the opinion of many the Sansa Clip. I have one, I think the sound is great too. Add to that: inexpensive (2 GB and radio = $50-60) very compact design fair battery life (12-15 hrs) a helpful forum and on-going support from Sandisk (updates their...

    A little more 'fair' site I think http://getyourwebsitehere.com/jswb/rttest01.html - out of my first 10 (single) tries, 8 where either 0.187 or 0.188!!
