			<description><![CDATA[<b><i>akira^8GB says:</i></b><p>I eitehr want a 130 or the GS, I think I will still go for the XEGS, more space inside for mods and I can put my TV on top of it and optimize space <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/tongue.png" width="15" height="15" alt="tongue" /></p>]]></description>
