During a sales promotion in Albuquerque a place (Sound Ideas) was selling
the Mangobox 1040 for $95.00 (yes! less than $100). For your first CD you
can't go wrong at that price. I mean, I wouldn't even buy a cassette deck
at that price, plus it won't do to your disks what a cheap deck can do to
your tapes: ie munchy-crunchy. Keep an eye out for sales promos like this
in your area if you want to join the digital revolution!
