It's funny, because I have experienced the exact opposite! I tried
to get cassette and I ended up with radio only! (2 times actually!!).
But I wasn't the one buying the car so... :)

Yeah, well, if you have a CD player in the car, it's even simpler! ;)

hehehe! which is what 3M did (not just with DAT)... (though I always
thought they went a little too fast: they almost had the whole market to
themselves when they did it...)
... Everybody should believe something: I believe I'll have another beer!
