That's awesome. Thanks.

You can buy one at most places for around $60 (US). And a pretty good one at that.
I agree with the speculation of why they don't include it, but for people who have no idea that an ODB II readers is, the additional information that ah O2 sensor is broken won't keep them from taking it to a dealer anyway.
Every independent garage has an ODB II reader.
And no shade tree mechanic goes without. Its time for the car manufacturers to come into the 1990's.

I used it for half a year, my company got me one to go around the country and do training on a new system we developed. It was connected to an overhead projector converter, where I could show the text on a projected screen.
For its day, it was a wonderful computer, it was tough, and it wowed people.
It was, however, very heavy for its size, and despite its look, it had no battery. It always had to be plugged in.
The display was far more usable than anything else at the time, it was extremely sharp, but as I recall, it was limited to text.

Those are some danceable cables!
Cisco had limited what Linksys routers could do as to discourage corporate sales.
There are many better choices than Linksys these days.
The N900 is pretty nice, along with dozens. They're cheap (you can get decent non-cisco routers for $30 on sale)
Just use something else.
Actually, this is wrong. There is no person named John Galt even in the book.
Then move away from NYC. NTC is an expensive place to live.,
Historically people move to where the opportunities are or where economically it makes sense to live.
Just wanting to live in NYC doesn't mean you are able to.
At the risk of being redundant, these are retail clerk jobs, and don't require a whole lot of skill.
People walk into the store ready to buy a computer. I've never seen a clerk in an Apple store actually sell someone a computer who didn't already want one.
GPS receivers work well on civilian airliners.
On an old Garmin I took on the plane, it indicated a speed over 500 MPH at 40,000 feet, so I'm not sure how fast you have to be or how high you have to be to disable GPS.
Dealing with people that will try to nickel and dime you is no way to make a living.
Let some other chump provide them with "service". Spend your time finding decent clients.
If they now charge $6.50 for a 30 ounce coke, they will then sell the 16 ounce for $6.50.
They might bridge it by offering one free refill, but this is new york, so probably they won't even do that.
I think MP3's were invented by the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany. Not by Thompson in France.
I've taken apart ipads, iphones, pretty much every device.
I don't think I could tell what was patent infringing from that view and what was not.
I think they're just issuing press releases.
