Just bought a used one in eBAY .. somehow .. I think its not 'in good

I have a fully working NEC MultiSync 6FGp monitor in very good condition
that I can no longer justify keeping.  This is a heavy beast and it takes a
lot of desk real estate but remains a pretty good piece given its age.  You

Folks
thinking of buying my young (12 year old) nephew a Canon A85.  Have read
many good reviews.  Does anyone here have any bad experience or good
experience with this camera?

Does anyone have small capacity CF Cards they no longer use?  64Mb or
less would be great, but must be in good working condition.  Reply with
info including prices.

This group used to be alot more active, does anyone know why it has slowed
