Thanks for the update, Jim. Hate to loose a source for service.
Now that you mentioned it, he stated some dribble about coating the thing which
was quickly followed by the $470 price. That's when I quickly lost interest.
I know that Apple rebores MC's for $95 without any fancy extras. I need the
service from some source so perhaps I'll recheck with White Post for both at a
no frills job.
Cheers,
Gary
