Lynn, I'm sorry, I have to agree with Ron on this.  Although the Nespresso is step ahead of a $49 Norelco Espresso machine since it is a pump machine as oppossed to a steam driven, it is no match for his machine or my dream machine, the Rancilio Silvia.

Mine is convience personified with a decent espresso but limited choices b/c of the proprietary capsules.  And no, I'm not hauling it to Colorado.  I will hike to some hole-in-the-wall coffee den flying under the radar that makes a nice cappuccino.  (Also, I have a weakness for Starbuck Mochas..shhh....)

And as for my wife, we spend our honeymoon at Aspen but it turns out I was misled.  Her interest in skiing dwindled and eventually died.  I spend my Spring Breaks with family in Vermont without her.  I would be going to RS3 alone if I go.  And yes, I am seriousl considering it.  I had been contemplating a ski trip through Tampa Bay Snowskiers to go with others out west, but this just sounds like too much fun.
