I'm an electrical engineer living and working in Folsom, California.

Grass Valley area here. Hi, neighbor.

You're the only other person on this side of Sacramento who've got Empegs that I know about. Only me and my friend Tod up here, and now you. Everyone else I know is in the Bay area. (If there's any other Sacramento area owners who I've forgotten, please chime in!)

A few times a year, there are Bay Area owner's get togethers. They're pretty ad-hoc spontaneous kinda things, but sometimes a few of the folks from Cambridge are in the area at the time and can attend the meets. So be sure to keep your eyes on this BBS for news of the meets, maybe you'll get a chance to meet the people who made the player.
