Funny thing is that the seller not only fouled up the DISK word in the 
title, but the model number of the system was mis-typed twice, both at the 
title and in the description...

Oh well, they'll keep on coming...

If you can guess at misspellings you can often find bargains. Sprint did
this - set up companies that registered phone numbers that were slightly off
well advertised numbers and similar and then charged premium prices. I
remember "Any long distance company" was one they used to great profit.
