Chicony 5181 for $50 shipped on ebay

Looks like a nice one. If I was a little more flush right now, I would snag it myself.

"Starting in 2011, the deficits again started to shrink. During Obama’s term  the deficit was reduced by $900 Billion  before finally in 2015 the GOP managed to wrangle a “reconciliation” bill out of Obama where he again cut corporate taxes, as well as made permanent some of George W. Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

Sorry guys, for the last couple of hours I could not stop thinking about this board, so I bought it myself.

I will have a very nice one up for sale on ebay shortly, if this turns out to be the upgrade I expect it to be. Otherwise I will re-sell it and keep the one I have.

You snooze, you lose.

Oh wow...nice deal.  Looks like a monterey blue switch.  It's from my hometown too!
