    It's the magnets and transformers that add the weight.

    Fun thing just happened, the battery in my Pensa needed changing, so I took the cover off the back, and normally I've just picked that up and set it down. Today I flipped it over, which I have never done before. It's signed by the guy who made it and his assistant.

    Ah, great story. I love to see old people being helped to enjoy the benefits of modern technology by the younger generation that have a clue.

    Your not tripping until you are listening to Roger Water's Music from the Body Album.
