The Cyndustries List

I've spent a lot of money (for me anyway) just
recently building up a 'core' modular system and the
ZO seemed like a logical step for my growing interest
in eclectic/strange/exciting modules.  Not being ready
to buy but anxiously awaiting my bonus (pay off the
credit card already!) I was hoping to place an order
in January.

I had a pretty serious case of sticker shock when I
visited AH after the announcement.  I thought "God, AH
couldnt mark up *that* much, could they?!?

If demand is high enough to warrant that kind of price
jump, Cynthia must be absolutely swamped with all
those orders.  Great for her business, not so great
for me.

Looking forward to Cynthia's other MOTM format
modules,
Hans
