I think you should not tell EVERYONE in the world that you are not planning
to pay sales tax on a purchase. After all IRS agents have access to the net
too you know.

As to the good deal ... I could get a new one for that price with the manuals,
and everything else. You will have to pay taxes (unless you don't live in
CA ), but I think it will be worth it to get the manuals.

Also this place has been in bussiness since 1985. They offer one year parts,
two year labour warranties on everything with the option of buying extra
warranty at the time of the purchase. If anything goes wrong I would rather
be dealing with a bussiness that any friend, or stranger ( If you don't know
what I am talking about you are EXTREMELY lucky). At any rate if you think you
could use my help let me know. Email me at benkai@netcom.com.

P.S. Ignore the first part of this post; it was meant as a joke. At any rate
      don't think you are reponsible for the tax, I think the seller is.
      Also I am not sure this is the proper group for posting "Comparison
      shopping" kind of questions. I could be wrong. Anyway I hope the above
      makes your decision a little easier.

I just received the following wire from my generous Daddy: "Dear Jack, Don't
buy a single vote more than necessary. I'll be damned if I'm going to pay for
a landslide. J.F.K.
