LTJBukem enthusiast Registered: 18/07/2001 Posts: 299	Hi All, I just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the time I have spent on the BBS over the last few years. Even though i'm now fully ipod-enabled, the empeg will go down in history as the best and most flexible mp3 player EVER !! Take care everyone. All the best ! _________________________ LTJ

Ladmo addict Registered: 04/09/2004 Posts: 525 Loc: Oklahoma	Well I knew about the movie...even rented it on VHS years and years back, and regretted every minute of it. Within the top 10 of all time pukefests....but then I think Out Of Africa has got to be in the top five, if not the number one 'puke out' of all time....'I had an empeg once....' at least that would have got my attention!

rbenech journeyman Registered: 08/08/2001 Posts: 51 Loc: CA, USA	Zardoz, I DOES work great! I was just up at SQUAW and was passing-up downhill skiiers in my stumpy snowboard. The snow was your typical sierra cement w/ heavy powder in the trees. But it was cloudy at 56°F, perfect spring skiing weather (no ice)... Anyway, just a simple wipe down before going on the hill gave my board a super slick feel... _________________________ Ryan here... Empeg [08000462] 40 Gig with Subaru WRX sport wagon attached...
