The newer pins are going for up to 3 times their original cost (of say, one year ago). I would like nominate Flash as the best "transitition" pin because of it's interesting layout, good sound (no voice) and (because its a Williams) its reliability (drop targets being the only offender in it). Xenon is pretty sick. For worst sound -- Sharpshooter. The old style BEEPs and BOOPS make you wish that electronics had never happened, at least not within hearing distance! Uhm, being a newcomer to this rolling silver mess, I don't have much else to say. Gary (hplabs,ios,allegra,fortune)oliveb!olivee!gnome
