Jon,

The slide out ash tray and drink holder come with the PRO version,
which includes built-in electronic record and playback directly to your
M$ Windows NT machine.  You can be your own Stevie Wonder!

Gee, Mr. Wizard, does anyone else remember the Kimball Cosmopolitan?

It's reminiscent of the wonderful story about Gieseking, who, when told
of the wonders of the Ampico, and how it could reproduce 27 gradations
of volume, reportedly said "How marvelous!  I play with 28."

OK, so, it's a loosely connected story relative to the wonders of
technological advances.

(Hmm.  Was that Gieseking or Schnabel?  Doesn't matter, they
both played with at least 28 gradations of volume - and did their
best electro-mechanical recordings on the Welte, anway.)

Best to all.

Horace
