Thank you very much, AJ!

Glad to do it. I was actually planning on doing it when I saw my new edition come in the mail. This post beat me to it!

1. I was at my dealer last week having my fuel gauge repaired, when he told me that the McQueen Edition is entirely pre-sold out throughout the country. He was allocated 2 and sold both within a week. When he inquired of the NA General Manager about obtaining more (he had to turn away 11 deposits), he was told in no uncertain terms that there were no more to be had.

2. Just a word of warning: Print magazines everywhere are encountering tough times and they are becoming more and more proprietary about their editorial content. While it was a nice thing that AJ did here - we should be careful about posting copyrighted material in whole on this site unless permission of the copyright holder is obtained. Remember - no one thought the RIAA, ASCAP or BMI would ever move against Napster users sharing music - but they did and they won those suits - many of them for big money.

I was webmaster at Audiogalaxy (an MP3 sharing site that was better then Napster) when the RIAA came down on file-sharing.

Audiogalaxy actually won their suit that the RIAA brought against us and we didn't have to turn over our user database. But the law changed after that and effectively put us out of business as far as file-sharing goes. Audiogalaxy still exists, but I have nothing to do with it.

You can thank Metallica for all of that.

Metallica........I WAS a fan back in the "day" but what a bunch of $ grubbing econo-punks. Like the millions a year off ticket sales they make isn't enough.....geesh. Every member is a multi millionaire.....yet they pulled the crap they pulled?
A band that started as soooo "anti establishment" Amazing how FAST those guys became THE ESTABLISHMENT real fast. I smell "sell outs"....how bout you? Feel the same about Pink FLoyd to.....all "anti establishment" in the songs, but millionaires every one.....how do you sing about "fighting the "man" when YOU are the man.............? I guess its easy to "deal" with the inner conflict while you cash those HUGE checks....J
ust listen to the lyrics to the song "money" then consider what they make annually in sales, plus when they do a concert.......I just shake my head every time.......but I like the song

Does anyone know if any Steve McQueen SE T100's have made it to the States yet?

I heard they have but they were sold months prior to their arrival and would never hit the showroom floor.
