... trolling other discussion groups. Just FYI - I no longer own a Protege. I sold it (Saturday, but picked up by buyer yesterday) for a satisfactory price. Gave me 3 and a half years of flawless service, and lots of fun (especially with the many minor/major add-ons I made). I drove it around a bit over the wekeend, but realized that having another fun Mazda meant I wouldn't miss it as badly as I would. Can I still continue to post here? ps: This buyer wanted to see an inspection report, so I had an unbiased mechanic inspect it. I didn't even tell the mechanic (although the garage owner knew) I was the seller, not the potential buyer, as is typically the case with a pre-purchase inspection. It came back with a super clean bill of health, and the mechanic tells me - "Buy this car - its one of the cleanest cars its age, and a better deal than more expensive stuff that isn't any better". How d'ya like that? |

Just don't Vocus us! Glad you got a decent price for your car. I don't think you'll miss it at all considering how nice your new car is. Although there is always some sentiment when a car is gone. Although I was so ready to dump my 11 year old Civic, I was still kind of sad the day we picked up the Element and left the Civic sitting at the dealer. Wonder what that car is doing today? |

I'm thinking about the Pro - but also happen to know exactly what its doing The buyer called saying the CD changer didn't work. Turns out we never went through how to use the head unit to control the CD changer! So I know he's ou on his super-long commute (like 80 miles round trip). Hopefully the car provides him the same fun, (and if he doesn't care about fun, at least) reliable service it gave me! |

They handed out 10% off coupons at last Friday's Panther event at my local Apple Store, and I ended up walking out with a 12in G4 iBook. So far so good. Only one crash in Safari to date (I'll find out how stable it is during this week's Mazda Mania chat). Battery life is pretty close to their claimed 6 hours. It seems snappy enough for my occasional movie-editing (which was slow on my old original dual-USB iBook). More than enough for everything else I do on it. Whew. That was a big chunk of change. Not as big as a new car though. Seriously, their new machines are pretty nice. The G5 is still expensive, but it's made the older G4 minitowers even cheaper, though they pale in comparison to the G5 towers. I think the eMac makes a very good business machine, though it is aimed at home and education users. |

| You bet! Although, truthfully, I'm glad I was inside the comfort of my home instead of being out there! | |

I hope it finds you and yours well. |
