Of course rates fluctuate, sometimes wildly and *usually* in the wrong
direction when *MY* money is involved! <G> But, at least one would know
"if it sold right this instant, it'd be about...." instead of having to
calculate it oneself.

Okay, that's good. Now I hafta drag out the ol' calculator (or run Win98
calculator... yech!) or go to that currency calculator web page in order
to figure it out. Wouldn't it be *alot* easier on the rest of us if the
poster just added "or about $3,523 US" (using your conversion rate above)?
Like I said, it's not a RBD (real big deal), but it *would* be kinda nice
if folks could do that.
