Dicky,
Sony finally plans on releasing a proper boombox in the U.S. this spring
(and by "Boombox," I mean a battery-powered unit with a handle; an
AC-powered shelf system is _not-not-not_ a boombox in my book!). I wonder
why it's taken so long for Sony to meet this need? To me this has always
been a frustrating hole in the product offerings.
>From a recent Sony-U.S. press release:
High-Speed Dubbing Hits the Road with VCR-Like Programming Capabilities
Sony�s first portable MD boombox (model ZS-M35) cuts CD-to-MD dubbing time
in half for consumers who enjoy making their own mixes.
With high-tech styling that fits into an office or dorm room, the compact,
black and silver boombox features one-touch CD-to-MD recording, CD text
transfer and synchro recording.
The ZS-M35 includes an AM/FM digital tuner with 20 station presets, Remote
Commander� remote control and a Mega Bass� sound system. It also has a
built-in clock with a sleep timer, which functions like an alarm clock, and
timer recording capability, which allows MD recording to start and stop at
predetermined times.
The ZS-M35 will be available in April 2000 for approximately $350.

Also, I am a Mac user myself, so please let me know what you find out re: MD
dubbing to CD via your Mac desktop.
