Phillip,
Thanks for the info. I'll try to get the whole box full (about 8 or 9
machines). If I do, I'll let you know. $50 for one sounds fine to me.
I've never used a RS 102 and it's been years since I used a RS 100 so I
don't know what the differences are but I assume the 102 has everything
that a 100 does.

Seriously, Joe, if you get a box full, will you be putting some up for
sale?
