run... run very fast! the folks on here only encourage you to spend you money on things that break and then tell you that it is an "opportunity to upgrade"! This site will however require you to screw off at work just to read all the endless amount of information housed on this great site... I might suggest some type of covert website viewing device if you actually do have a job that requires your attention because most of these keyboard cowboys just sit in front of their computer all day and give you more reason to buy expensive stuff... I started with a Formula 242LS and now look at what happens after just a few years! I could have been retired at 40 if not for this wonderful addiction we call fun.
