Actually, I think Maestro is not that old, but Mastercard's
implementation of a debit-card system.  You can have your
MC "Maestro-enabled", which will deduct the charge from
your bank account automatically.  A PIN # would have to be
punched in, etc.

$5 for a 7448!?!?!?  Who do they think they are -- Newark!? :-)

I think I got ya beat in old stores, Pic Dude.  :)

There's a local electronics store in town that has a "maestro" sticker
on the door (I think MasterCard was Meastro long ago), they also still
use a purely mechanical cash register!

Unfortunately the owner isn't as nice as yours.  This guy wanted 5 bucks
for a 7448!
