Found this on the Power Windows site:

Atlantic Remasters: Although there has been no official announcement as of yet from Anthem Records, set for reissue on August 24, 2004, are remastered versions of Rush's studio albums with Atlantic: Presto, Roll The Bones, Counterparts, Test For Echo and Vapor Trails. Already listed on Amazon.com [click links to preorder], the remastering of Vapor Trails has been requested since shortly after its original release (audiophiles may recall the article "Over the Limit - Ceiling Limited" which discussed the poor mastering of the original release), and this fan hopes the spine copy on Presto is corrected so that it no longer appears upside down in the rack! - July 20, 2004

You kow this is so funny you bring this up, Just last Sunday I was cleaning all my Rush CD cases and replacing them as needed and I had them all lined up in date order and I noticed Presto was upside down. I tried for an hour to fix it but nothing worked. I ended up turning it up side down so the side looked like all the rest of the CDS. I look back at this post now, Am I really that anal?? :???:

LOL! I hear ya boys! I just got home from a four day gig and my eldest son had the wisdom to take all our Rush studio CDs as well as some of the copmpilations along with us. When I was putting them back in the CD holder, I didn't have time to put them in choronological order, as I wanted to get everything unpacked and into some sense of order before Panacea and her family showed up for their visit with us, so I just made sure they were rightside up and in the proper place as far as alphabetizing by bands goes. I still had to apologize to Pan though when she went over by the CD holder for not having gotten them in chronological order yet. Don't worry though; it should be done tomorrow.
