I still have my first (and only, 'cuz I really don't need a replacement) Sony CD (Mega Bass) Discman D-33. It has outlasted two fullsize CD hifi players. I still use it almost daily at my bedside attached to a modest speaker bar - good enough for close listening while trying to get to sleep. The D-33 was an expensive bugger at over $250USD at the time. --- OpenXP 5.0.51 * Origin: Ogg's WestCoast Point (21:4/106.21) .
