Been bouncing between avionics and those wafers since 4 inch. We don't even touch the wafers anymore.

A Pelican 0450 tool chest (sigh). Guess I'll wait until bonus time in Feb.

Yes, my friend has told me a variation of this. I think I'm going to go next year and see what I can do. He told me that the vendors don't want to ship the stuff back so you can make an offer. It doesn't bother me to stay an extra day in Vegas!:lol2:
