Anyone else heard this???

I did saw their crossovers in some fresh installations, but probably some NOS stuff.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-15-2008 09:59 AM                     We have for years been doing many of our own in house repairs for Smart as we have so much of it in our circuit and international shipping is a pain even for warranty items The only cards we don't repair ourselves is the DSP matrix and the NR cards  |  IP: Logged Edward Jurich Master Film Handler Posts: 305 From: Las Vegas USA Registered: Jul 2003 posted 11-15-2008 02:45 PM                     quote: Joshua Waaland Not to mention I was in Kansas last year and there was a whole lot of nothing. Who the frick wants to live or work in Kansas anyhow? I drove through the state for two and a half hours straight and never got a cell phone signal and saw very few houses or businesses. About the only area of Kansas worth living in is adjacent to Kansas City. Even then, taxes in Kansas are on the high side. And I would also apply that quote to northern Oklahoma where I experienced 2 hours of nothing, unless you like looking at oil rigs.  |  IP: Logged Tony Bandiera Jr Film God Posts: 3067 From: Moreland Idaho Registered: Apr 2004 posted 11-15-2008 02:49 PM                     You want to talk about a whole lot of nothin? Try the drive up the Central Valley of California on I-5. Flat, boring, nothing to see and rest stops are kinda far apart, and crappy radio stations to boot.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-16-2008 10:48 AM                     You guys are funny! If you look where that whole lotta nothing is you will be surprised what you find! I travel across the Utah Desert and Nevada alot and I can very definately tell you that in the nothing out there there is quite alot.

At least driving from K.C. MO to Joplin via US-71 has more to see even though it's terribly flat. Least it's green, not all dry and pasty of desert driving.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 12-22-2008 05:23 PM                     I see today that smarts web site is now a electronics reseller  |  IP: Logged Joshua Waaland Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 800 From: Cleveland, Ohio Registered: Dec 1999 posted 12-23-2008 09:47 AM                     I called them yesterday to check on my power supply being repaired and the person who answered told me they are changing their name and that is why the website is gone.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 12-23-2008 10:44 AM                     They probably sold the web site name for 149.50... Josh, when your supply fails a second time send it to me and I'll fix it correctly for you.
