1198341 2011-05-02 23:50:00 I had one that I bought on Trademe a couple of year back. Converted 20 odd tapes and resold the player for more than I originally paid for it :)

Look on Trademe - one will turn up, but beware - they are like hen's teeth and twice as dear :( :(

I agree...

Caps lock should only be used for starting sentences and copying and pasting material, e.g a hijackthis log. You may get banned as caps lock in other contexts (normal use, arguing) is very irritating.

Seriously, please don't threaten people (especially new members) with being banned. Polite reminders about not writing all in uppercase is all that is required.

Oh, sorry about that. Guess I do need a friendly nudge once in a while...
