I never had a CC and I don't really want one, I think it's in the acquired taste category in terms of its Tower of Babel Design Language.

When I moved 2.5 years ago, I chucked a pair of thrifted 575's into the dumpster in disgust without even thinking about scavenging parts. One was about 3/4 TAKKYfied and they were both fugly enough to put down for that reason alone. I thought a BigScreen TAKKY/TV would grow on me . . .

. . . I was wrong. :p

One nice thing about the TAKKY575 project though, one of the FDDs wound up in my pet IIfx and is still working like a champ, the black bezel and dust door are a really nice addition. I just can't bring myself to mod the other slot for ZipSpittin' next to it, but I'll certainly be putting one there for use in pop-top mode along with the side-saddle CD.
