Min I assume? Well it originally came from Malasia I believe and I bought it in Switzerland and since it has been here in France and in England. No frequent flyer miles, just a lot of strange cargo holds.

My CDP is on its way back from the UK after a BIG upgrade (500$ worth) I forgot though to ask about those new op amps that have been mentioned here. Oh well that can wait.

Transport works, display is showing the right info; i think something in one of the new power supply modules blew. Means another ten days wait and more postage.
