    Map/Computer Light for Cab

    Ever since building our laptop console last year, I had been looking for a light to mount over the computer for night-time use. At the Fall '05 LD GTG in Burlington, what should I find on the Silent Auction table but a nice little 12-volt, goose-neck light - just what I was looking for. And I managed to win it ! It's made by Littlite.

    		 For travel, the gooseneck easily flexes up and rests in the loop of cables to the CB radio.
