Re: Cheap Solid State Storage.

It helps to give more forewarning to potential buyers, too (I only saw
the mail after the auction had closed.)  It was a auction, that price
was per unit, but you are competing with others who want to buy the
units as well...  "The Thrill of the hunt" for some people <G>

  I don't mind what's (to me) potentially useful information like this,
so long as it's kept to a dull roar, doesn't become over, oh, 2% or so
of the total list e-mails.  A valid return e-mail address, and the ad
fairly short, are good too.  This one was OK under those criteria (much
of the length was disclaimers <G>)  But I didn't write the mail list
charter & haven't read it lately!

  Short way to say it: So long as it's done courteously & not too
frequently, I won't gripe. <G>  Same goes for good jokes even if off
topic!
