Posted By: <b>DMcD</b><p>Jim: Got to agree with you on the Matty cabinet. Am surprised you hadn't seen it yet. I have posted it several times. In fact I think many of the fellows are rolling their eyeballs by now. The scan is about 90% of the actual size (it's not in correct proportion to the M110). Your Mr Ewing is none too shabby neither. I do not understand this thing, how you call it?, &quot;grading&quot;. If that's a two, I am a Dutchman.<br><br>Edited to say thanks for the E93 pop reports.

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Barry, if it happens again that you get the dreaded &quot;red x&quot; do a hard refresh by holding down the shift key and hitting F5. That will usually cure the problem.
