I'm not married, but my girlfriend has a tendency to chastise me for a lot of
the toys I buy. She doesn't try to talk me out of doing it (she knows it
won't work...), but she's happy to point out how unwise and frivolous she
thinks I'm being.
So I didn't tell her about the Indys until yesterday when I forwarded her a
comment regarding them. She immediately replied saying that she (not a
techo-geek in the least) wants one! She worked with GIS on Indys (they also
had an Onyx for really heavy lifting) and has always wanted one.

She's a little less certain now, until Nate tells us more, but that'll
probably be a fourth Indy on my order.
