revealing my noobness...
If i could borrow your thread for a moment to ask a stupid question, I figure out most abbreviations and such, but NOS is driving me crazy..? My the way, viola, good for you on being content. I don't have the discipline to be content. I'm quickly making my way thru half a grand and I hate sundays now since the mail doesn't run.
That was meant to be a well-posed question, but it fell apart somewhere.
Thanks,
Adam

By the way, I don't know why this never got sticky status in the newbie's corner but here is a reference in case you should need it:
Acronyms

Thanks
I greatly appreciate the link, lillith. I've actually heard of new old stock, I just hadn't pieced it together with the acronym.
