Now all I have to do is work out how to use it.

So what arrived in a nondescript brown box for me this afternoon ?

I have no experience with "toys" that come in non-descript packages... but I've heard that that is how stuff from adult only stores come.

Wasn't something from Larry Flynt, was it, Curly? :p

I plan to throw a linux distro on there. Much cheaper!


Also, nice car Nez. Personally, I would have kept the jet though :P
