I forgot to mention the CD, probably because it doesn't work with my
machine. Apparently they are much freer about handing it out, and it's
probably a lot faster than waiting for each page to download, but still no
substitute for leafing through a real catalog. And the M-C catalog has a
great feel to it - on a tactile level, by far the nicest catalog to leaf
through that I  know of.

I got a couple of the hoses, BTW - three footers for $12. Look and feel
exactly like the ones I've been paying $30 for, same pressure rating. They
don't come O2 cleaned, and the braid felt a little oily, so I gave them the
Simple Green treatment and they were fine.
