Both very boring - spend the cash on clothing for all weather !
Hi, I do not mind the weather. It is more around my work that will mean that once the nights draw in, it is going ot be difficult to get out in the week.
I am used the boredom factor in that I have a concept II ergo rowing machine at home and have used that most evenings for the last four years!!!

I have the I-magic, I think the difference is in the motor brake, the fortus will allow you to free wheel and appear to accelerate, ie when going down hill.
Personally I wasn't bothered about that and used the saved money to buy several of the Tacx DVD's, well worth it in my mind as you then are actaully riding a course, resistance increases and decreases along with the profile of the course, including hurting like hell in the Alps.
Yes turbo's can be boring, on a regular one even with music or tv I can only manage an hour, with the i-magic and their dvd's I have no problems doing 3+ hours.
