Also, I'll bet you didn't know that when IBM started selling mainframe computers, they would sell them at or below cost.............

IBM made it's money selling the CARDS the code was punched on..............

Personally, I prefer the 80's and 90's kawi and Honda sportbikes over the newer ones. the Hurricane, and F2 600's were and still are my personal faves, along with the ZX1000A/B series bikes. I LOVE my ZX1000A1, well, aside from having faggy16" rims(soon remedied btw) this bike is great.

The new Ducatis rock looks wise. The Japanese bikes have gotton uglier over the years for some reason.
