Ah the line wrap won't hurt that last bit. eBay doesn't really need it.
But that LOOKS like I want my gear to look. A little oldish and wonky, but 
too cool to care.
You just can't buy that look new. Although a lot of the gear being made now 
looks awesome anyway.
But the way my mind works I couldn't abide modules that looked too similar.
