As other have said, extremely nice shot.  I can almost smell that new, fresh out of the box plastic-smell just looking at the photo.

Shiny... **hypnotized**

Take many pictures of your shiny find! There are many excellent avatar pics and desktops that could come from that thing.

So funny you say that - I did smell the plastic and I swear it still has that new plastic(ly) scent.

Plus, Aaron, the composition and focus (sharpness) of this photo are killer. I love it. :)

Thanks esteban.  I take pride in anything I shoot.

Oh yah....I just looked at it and it was some kind of red paint that was sticking itself to the plastic...I used my fingernail and took it off no problem.  It's mint again! :P

Congrats those setups are sweet there's been times i thought about getting one.

Still the,CDROM2 seems to fragile to me i'm afraid it would break afther a few run throughs.

Let alone finding one that's in mint shape that works.

I always sniff the instruction manuals of brand new games.  It's damn intoxicating!

By the way, I expect an update to the TurboMemoirs with pictures like that. Hurry before it turns yellow!!

Holy hell!  That is one of the most amazing pce cdrom2's I've seen in...well...ever!  Very nice shots with the camera.  I love the original shot you posted.  Nice depth of field.  Congrats on an amazing ebay bid.  Worth every penny if you ask me.  It makes me want to search for one as well.  Not NIB but close.

Congrats, Aaron! It looks awesome. When I get my Duo-R with the S-Video and Region Switch, I hope it looks as good and fresh as that! :pray:

The pictures are beautiful, but in my opinion, I like the first one better. You can get a better look at the system.

Hope you enjoy your purchase! :)
