:I forgot about the ad thread.  Wasn't there a problem with the
model
:notgetting paid?  Didn't Derek say the model was his
girlfriend?

I don't remember, but someone said she made every other model
look like a witch, no wait, that was something else.

One other funny thing about the box is the screen shot of the
bridge view.  It has the upper third as the outside view and
the bottom 2/3 displays.  It looks just like flight simulator!
I wonder if BOX 2.0 will have a screen shot of PERSCAN.
