I did something I never do.. I went through the Instructions letter by
letter today to include all the software.. I made it do everything they
showed me in the Manual..
I spent a couple of years trying to decide if a Camera of this quality was
necessary.. but it turns out to be the Real deal Vs a Kinda Digital...
takes super quality pic's and then you can format them and do what ever...
I talked to Joe Timnony tonight about the suspension woes... and he is with
me.. I need a Ladder Bar set up in the long run.... oh well.. Guess I am
just going to have to do that.... before Bville....
talk at you later..
