...three-tray CD player, a tuner, a set of speakers that look cool until you put on the odd, undersized protection screens, and the thing that makes it worth talking about, a rewritable CD burner. (It doesn't have a tape player, which I suppose at this point is considered as archaic as records, but there is an auxiliary input if you have a tape player component lying around). You can do high-speed copying; not only straight CD-to-CD burns but also compilations of songs from three CDs. For example, you could take the three albums John Lennon...

The Mavica MVC-CD1000 ($1,300, available in August) comes with a built-in CD-ROM burner, so when you snap a picture, you don't have to download it to your PC.

These random facts are all the more interesting when Allyn writes about sex in college. Among his many stories...
...Maiten-Esquel run is a 6 1/2-hour ride through breathtaking scenery, with the majestic peaks of the snowcapped Andes in view part of the way. As much fun as the scenery is the train itself. Visitors can stand alongside the engineer as he operates the brakes and the burner on the steep grades along the way. For the less daring there are two shorter rides, El Maiten-Vuelta al Rio and Esquel-Nahuel Pan, each 31 miles long. You can avoid cancellations due to snow by booking Argentine spring and summer trips--when it's fall and winter...
