A look at the new toy at McIntosh....

This is a new clock generously donated by a McIntosh enthusiast to the factory. I want one!

You gotta be joking?!
You mean after McIntosh probably sold these clocks to consumers 20 years ago, at probably a price of $250 or more a pop, some fool decided to donate one of them back to the company?

I can imagine that in my listening room with all the lights off. That is probably the only Mac gear I could ever afford and that may not be necessarily so either. I want one though.

Nice clock Ryan.

When I was a kid, the Pontiac car dealership had one similar to that. Telechron movement, backlit dial and surrounded by lots of neon!

Hey Mark, why don't you just do the right thing and delete your nasty comments. I doubt that anyone is interested in your problem other than yourself.

Very neat clock. Nice that someone was generous enough to donate it.

The validity of his points has no bearing on the fact that they don't belong in this thread.
