I saw one at the flea market the other day. The thing weighs a ton.

Yes, that's why I haven't got one yet. I can't possibly get it shipped. I saw one on eBay listed at $282 shipping!

I've seen a few local ones, but they were either jammed or looked like crap. I'm waiting patiently for a good one. (...because I know that once I've got it, I'll never be able to get rid of it)

I only buy genuine IBM balls.  Those are GPs.  Consider me snotty.

You just kicked me in my balls. I had no idea that there were different makers of the same font ball. (my balls are tainted!)

But... is there a difference between an IBM Orator/10 and a GP Orator/10? (...is the IBM clickier??)
