Around $2000 for a CD player? Nein danke. FYI Nick et al: spoke to our Apple dealer yesterday and got an Apple Spring UK price list from him. I was pretty surprised to see the Apple CD SC [TM] is 'only' 610 pounds! Ok, so it's a lot more than my Audio player, but at least it's approaching the realms of possibilities... (to convince my management, I mean). (Price is ex-VAT and ex-discount, BTW.) More like $1000, n'est pas? :-) (Hi Nick!) =========================================================================== Stewart Tansley | STC Technology Ltd | 'Be cool, or be +44 279 29531 x2763 | London Rd, Harlow, CM17 9NA, UK | cast out...' dswt@stl.stc.co.uk | ...uunet!mcvax!ukc!stl!dswt | Subdivisions, Rush =========================================================================== 'You know how that rabbit feels - going under your spinning wheels...' ===========================================================================
