Very nice but my harness doesn't accommodate a CPU and 70ft up a white pine the damn USB cable let go and that was the end of that box. I was left out on a limb with no power. Next time I'll try the laptop.

I only perform for my own amusement (fortunate, 'cos I'm the only one that finds me amusing...)

Is this for-estimat-or real?

I don't suppose it matters as long as we're getting a result
