——>>>>>> of September and Sony as well as a few independents were claiming to be out of stock so they could hold out for an extra 10% on Oct 1. Rat-ta-tat-ta-tat. I tried to close the deal several times only to find out at the last miniute none was in stock. Two of the dealers are here on the forum. I ended up closing the deal with a non forum dealer. I think I may have made a mistake as It still took TWO almost THREE weeks for my stuff to get here and all of it STILL isn't here, Yeah, thanks alot! What loyalty! <sg>

Oral I guess you figured out by now that I chickened out on the HI-8. I got the SVO9600PRO, Targa + and Animax controller. Nice combination. Of course this is the only frame accurate deck I have ever worked with so I cannot really compare it to anything else, gee, I guess that means in my mind there is no comparison, Heh. Anyway, it was a headache getting it all together, I got wrapped in the middle of the Sony Syndrome. The dealer did keep his word about not jacking up the price. I still wish I had bought it from a Forum dealer though, but this "other" guy convinced me that he could get it to me faster, he could not. Oh well, I will stick with the forum from now on, (as long as I can afford a telephone that is). I can't complain now, it all works beautifully, and I am only going to be about four days over my deadline for a project. Merlin G. Farmer
