My comment was only about buying stuff you don't want or need or can't afford
just to pump dollars into the market, as Statt suggested. And as was suggested
in this thread, buy a SS whether or not you can afford/justify it. That's a
valid comparison in my book.
I wasn't referring to the magazine part. The "flashy" web magazine idea is
cool, I can access such a thing with Netscape now.
