Re: [OT] CAR pc

["big_red_frog" <atod@xxxxxxx>]

This is something I was mulling over for the wife since her stereo
was nicked.

Only thing that has put me off at the moment is that some of the
lilliput screens coming into the country supposedly have burn in of
Jurassic Park on them. The rumor is that they have been removed from
some form of Eastern Pichenco machine and are being sold as new :-(

So until I get to the bottom of this and work out who is safe to buy
from I have put it on hold.

Here are some links.
