OK, OK, I'll chime in on this discussion. I had Advance do my dizzy last
spring. It works flawlessly. BUT, I still have points. While at LotO, I was
B.S.ing with Peter the Part Pimp, and he tells me of his "electronic
ignition" parts. Basically, it is points, and the condenser is some
electronic geegaw (southern scientific term) that "looks" like a condenser,
but isn't. He told me he had been running the same set of points on his Mini
(a REAL one, not a BMW one) and had no noticeable degradation of the points,
in something like a year.
 I have yet to install the set on our car yet, but since Peter isn't chiming
in, I hope he won't mind me calling him out.
Please, Peter, I know you won't willingly push your own product, but please,
let us know about your items, and how the "new" condenser works.
