After losing my wife, best friend and traveling partner earlier in the year I've been looking to something to occupy my time. (Ham radio isn't getting it done) I decided to rekindle an old interest in photography. So I did a lot of online comparisons of DSLRs and narrowed the choice to a couple of options.
I went to my local Best Buy about a month ago to do a hands-on comparison. This is difficult because they have so much anti-theft crap hanging on them you can't even assess the weight. I was there twice and both times the clerks were so surly and unhelpful that I left POed both times. Since then I've spent about three kilobucks with Amazon. No fuss, no tax and with Prime shipping, I order today, it's here tomorrow, and if I don't like it they take it back with no more hassle than driving to the UPS store.

I do 95% of this sort of my shopping on the internet. The local Radio Shacks (2) supply solder, common ICs, transistors, etc. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
