Is there something here that I'm missing? ............................................................................ The catch with the "gifts" is the "cable TV satellite dish". What you get is nothing more than an AM/FM radio that picks up TV audio signals. It is very clearly marked "TV satellite dish" but, that is just a company product name. Sorry, but the boat, home system, IBM and the caddie goes to the first people to buy the products: (eg) president,VP chairman of the board, etc. There goes your baby blue and printer. Gary W.
