No the smart ass in me,  is stomping them grapes into a  nice wine to go 
with my pasta.
Now I got the tomatos... I am sure I can find spagetti around the repair 
bench too. :)
So lets just change the title to 'ebay - and the free lunch' and lets 
get back to old hardware
of some kind.
Ebay does have the advantage in that everybody can find a place to sell 
the stuff if they have
vintage products. It is too bad 'FADS' of all kinds are the main staple 
product they seem to push.
