yo, nitpick!
=8-P
since when is a FINDrequired to be a liberation?

if you'll kindly notice the use of words "got", "nabbed", "sniped" and the term "new toy" clearly avoid connotations stemming from words based on the root "liberare" *see footnote

i guess i am more concerned with collection of interesting toys as i haven't actually claimed ANY liberations that i recall offhand. i was sharing exciting news about achieving two of my major goals. i thought this was the proper forum for that announcement. if it is not, feel free to fling this and the other thread anywhere appropriate.

i'm still happy as a piglet in poop anyway!

I think the term "liberation" is a moot point.

We are all 68k enthusiats enjoying the company of other like minded individuals. Be it a liberation, buy, find or otherwise, we should still congratulate(sp?) Trash on his new acquisition.

Way to go!

You know, I've held off on saying anything about this due to being more of a purist regarding liberation but what the heck - just scored two running Q950's and a Q700 for $10.50 on Ebay. Yep, I'm one happy camper.
