That would probably make it much more rare than the radio, right? I'm guessing most boatanchor users either used whatever speaker they had lying around or a pair of cans (earphones). -- Sven Weil New York City, U.S.A. |

They hate paying extra for stuff they can scrounge out of the trash. Even if it ends up looking like they scrounged everything out of the trash. SnapOn has the same problem with thier big roll cabinets. People buy the bottom cabinet, or the top box, but not at the same time. Then there isn't the matching box later when they run out of room.
