Nope - but I do know of a very nice table-top Ambex that a local grocery store wants to get rid of. It costs a bit less, looks a lot prettier than that canary yellow thing, and besides it'll be delivered free if I decide to buy it.

Ok ... so it wasn't the one that Milo posted.  But you are acquiring another one.

What model is it?  What do they want for it?

I saw this on ebay.  It wouldn't be that much of an upgrade from my YM2.  I may be looking at a 15kilo in the near future. 
Does anyone have any experience with IR burners, like what you would find in a Primo or Diedrich?  If so what would the benifits/ drawbacks of IR burners over atmospheric.

It'll be a freebie - swapped for a few vintage 'vette body parts I have. It looks sorta like the Mini, except it's got a highly polished body & a round cooling tray. I wonder if they were custom made for the H.E.B. store chains here in Texas?

Might be the YM2.  5.5lb batch capacity but the sweet spot is around 4-4.5lbs.  If its the YM2 you'll be happy with it.
