AH, I thought the prices were plus shipping rather than including shipping
and that makes a BIG difference! BTW, I get an "object not found" message
when I access the URL above. Second, I noticed you are looking for
computers including the Northstar Horizon. Are you open to trading
systems? I currently have four or five Horizons and am open to trading them
for other systems/stuff I don't have (yes Sam, it is phrased the same as
before :) .) The biggest problem *I* have with trading systems is the
shipping costs are almost always more than what I can get the whole computer
for assuming I can find the computer :)!
