I squized a Cascade 500 loaded into the hatch of my Stealth and drove 672
miles.  Technically since that's a 9.6 gig backplane does that qualify my
car as the fastest sports car?

Well...  We tried the ultimate test today.  I drove about 140km with a
Stratacom BPX 8600 and power supply in the trunk of my 1998 New Beetle
(with the back seat  folded down). It was a bit hard to get it, but once
in it fit quite nicely and didn't move around since it was so heavy.  Now
all I have to do is try a 7513...
