I must be nuts, but BLUE JAGs?

I must be nuts, but BLUE JAGs?

2004-09-08 by Gary Chang

Yeah, I know.  

It has been months since the end of the 300 Series, and I have gone
off the deep end.

I have pursuaded Grant to make Blue Wiard 1200 series faceplates,
complete with the Lions!

They won't exactly match the 300, (because they are actually engraved
instead of silkscreened), but they will match way better than the
generic looking black panels do.  The best part of it is that they can
be ordered one at a time.

Thanks to Grant for being such an accommodating fellow!

should we thank God for Grant or for Front Panel Express?

Thanks Grant! ;)

Very estute, Mark... ;-)

(Or maybe I am simply a newcomer to this stuff).

Not to pick at a seemingly scarred-over wound, but I like the Blue
Faceplates.  It is great that Grant now has an alternative to offer
this.  Those of us with 300s can have matching 1200 modules and Grant
can continue to offer the black panels as well.

Well. Front Panel Express is very expensive. For example a black 
faceplate in quant. 100 is $2.34 a single blue engraved faceplate 
is $75.00

But if you want it and you have to have it, and you are willing to 
pay the $75.00 more, I can supply it.

I should have pictures soon.

Blue face plates are too advanced for most primitives living in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the Milky Way Galaxy. 
Can I get a discount for a faceplate made from common household goods?

They say that is why UFOs stopped coming here to Terra of Sol 
(called "earth" by the locals). The whole planet is a slum.

On wealthy planets, there is no need for money or an economic 
system. Because there is no shortage of anything, it doesn't 
need to be accounted for.

Each aluminum faceplate has some recycled beer can content. 
Does that count as a household good?
