All,


The z13 would seem to be  (rather unusually) a winner. Pity today's Zeitgeist 
does not see things the same way. Consume, wrap it up and throw it away - what

I said in another place that seeing as they have the brighest heads on the 
planet, they should go back to thinking (what they used to be good at) and to 
hell with the shareholders.
