Unfortunately I'm using a PC....

Only way I can have internet is by way of a data card....

The new Macs don't have a PCMCIA slot any more :(

My Cube doesn't have one either....

Oh, yeah, Hawaii. Isn't there a way to have alternate keyboards on a PC, though?

In my city of nearly 1 million people in Brasil there were a baker's dozen Macs. Mine and the twelve owned by the local graphics design firm. Period.

When I signed up for the ISP there, they gave me the software on a 3 1/2" floppy! PC owners got a CD-ROM.

A week later, a power surge killed my Mac. Dead.

Its quite ugly, not in the same league as the Ric. I will say one thing though. I have played at least 6 different Sandbergs and they are seriously good. They have high quality German engineering, need I say more on that ? One of my local dealers stocks this make but not the Ric copy at this time I dont believe. Its still a ripoff of a Ric at the end of the day though !

The body looks the same proportions to me, except it looks like they copied the larger big horn. It is just the two large pickups, smaller tailpiece, but especially the longer fretboard with 24 frets that offends our perception of the classic Rick body shape. IMHO.
