I have the Xede with Xmap software. How about you buy the Xede and borrow my laptop for tuning?

This way you could save money. The Xede will cost about $800 shipped. I already have the laptop and xmap you could borrow.

I only ask for your help with tuning in the future.

-Mario, PM'd you back

-Chris, sorry brah, I already ordered a UTEC, but maybe we can still help each other tune... Thanks for the offer, but I would still rather get my own laptop.

Wes, what about your old box? It's not elegant, but it's enough to get the jbo done!

Just needs to be able to run a terminal emulation program. I'd say Win95 at a min. though. Pat's Win3.1 setup is no fun to work with.

I know we have this old Toshiba Satilite, running win 98 at the shop. I'll go check it out on wednesday.

Go for it man. There was a pretty decent thinkpad on forumshawaii, but when I called him he was all attitude like "Well I already SOLD it in EBAY for 300 DOLLARS." click. Oh well, the search continues... Brandon, I PM'd you my #, thanks
