 BA> While pretending they were multitasking on their Win95 machine,

Just curious about this quote line Bill....is this hinting that you do
not like Win95?  Or think it cannot multitask?
 BA> These brakes are smooth... First thing I noticed once on the trail was
 BA> that there is ZERO cable-drag friction that is associated with other
 BA> cabled-breaks.
I have never felt anything other than a smooth feel with cable brakes.  I
think if you keep your cables in reasonably good condition, you won't
get much in the way of cable drag.
 BA> On the down side, though, they are expensive as compared
 BA> to most other brakes, but IMO they are worth every penny.
Whats the going rate on those babies?  I don't think they are too much
more than V-Brakes are they?
I think I still prefer the V-Brakes.  Plus I like to support Shimano.
I think they are a good company, making great products.  I will always
have shimano components and shimano components only on my bike.  There
is yet to be any reason to switch--XTR stuff is simply the best stuff
you can buy.
... ... My computer has cables... So why can't I get HBO?
