The feel to them just cannot be beaten. After using a Northgate, everything else just doesn't seem worth it.

They are wonderful, and coming down in price. You can probably pick one up for under $80 now. -- _ /| *** Derek Jewhurst -- djewhurs@Cosmos.CalPoly.EDU *** _ /| \'o.O' STRESS: the confusion created when the mind must override the \'o.O' =(___)= body's basic desire to choke the living crap out of some =(___)= U idiot who desperately deserves it!
