You can find an industrial M....
You can find a mint space saver...

But an industrial space saver?  More likely to find a unicorn in your back yard or Olivia Wilde in your bedroom :(

I will dream a dream.
:D

I'd be happy with either that I listed, I think I just put the Industrial Space Saver up for ****s and giggles.

For a regular space saver, Comptekw2k puts up a new one every couple weeks on ebay.  Expect to pay 250-300$ there.

Alternatively, comptekw2k's website, http://surplus-electronics-sales.com puts up new space savers occasionally for 199$, but you have to check daily, because people here will snatch them up.

I know, I just missed out on the one on ebay that just sold for around $160.
Sent my bid in a little too late.

All Ms are industrial.

If Unicomp builds the SSK they should call it the Maximizer.

Which is ironic since it has less features than a regular M.

Less > More

Less - More > 0

sin(less - more) > sin(0)

sin(less)cos(more) - cos(less)sin(more) > 0

sin(less)cos(more) > cos(less)sin(more)

What more can I do to this?

'less' is better for viewing files. You can scroll back up to see the whole text if you want. You can't do that with 'more'. 'less' is more than 'more', if you get my meaning.

I agree very much.

SSKs for sale anyone?
