Re: [alfa] Update on 164 compressors and Alfa Bill's response to rid himself of more business

["Bill LeClair" <billleclair@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Alfabill has always been an asset to the ALFA digest, if you find something
better and cheaper great, please share with us. There is no need to bash
venders for the sake of bashing. ALFAbill sold me an air-compressor for my
164 many years ago. It was installed and ran great. Way back in 2000 (maybe
before?) Alfabill was (is) a pioneer in finding stuff better and cheaper for
the 164, join him do not bash him.
