I was the first to mention "chrome plated Shopsmith" and derailed the Google Chrome discussion. Although I must say the chrome plated ER is a lot more interesting.

It is quit unique but if you had a chrome plated ER would you use it "like any other ER" or would it be enshrined as a trophy?videobear wrote:I was the first to mention "chrome plated Shopsmith" and derailed the Google Chrome discussion.

As for off topic and hard to search.
If you are using the vBulletin Search function yeah absolutely.
I Use Google site search for searching forums sites and get much better results.

I have just become a fan of Google search whether it be using Chrome or Firefox. Okay. I only just tried a few searches with Firefox, but I use both Chrome and Firefox. The Boolean features are GREAT! Did date range and exclusion searches. I like that I get results for both the archived AND current threads.terrydowning wrote:As for off topic and hard to search.
