Thought it would be cool if everyone posted pictures here when their Compact arrives. :). To start off, I'll post the picture from the listing. So who else won a Compact?

Great Fred! Mine should arrive here next week, since he had to order boxes since I requested mine to be shipped in another box. Did you buy one to use and another to keep NIB? I plan on keeping mine NIB, but of course I'll run it every now and then. :) ~Alex | ||

That's a beautiful machine, Fred! Is the second one going to remain boxed and unused? | ||

C6 vs C8 Manuals
The theory that they may have packed older manuals with later machines may hold water since the machines really didn't change and the average purchaser wouldn't care about model numbers. Greg got his C8 with a C6 manual. The "Compact Queen" Tania will be down this weekend and we will post some more intelligence then! Fred | ||

And to think . . . Some call this the "Pig." It does look rather elegant in its pastel green. And Tania lends an even greater elegance to a beautiful machine! | ||
