[OT] 2.0 X-Flow Questions



So how cheap are we talking for a KS? I'm a student so my definition of
cheap may not be the same as yours ;) Where would I even get one anyway?

If i had one in my lap right now I'd certainly go put it in (well, after I
figured out how). My understanding was that as long as I was careful it
wasn't a necessity even though it would certianly be helpful. My budget has
limited me to simply taking care of the Scirocco rather than trying to
upgrade it for the most part, but if it's cheap enough....
