Looks like I have the "old" machine even though I just picked it up a few days ago! Well, no telling if I'll keep this one or not.

Keep that machine as a back-up. You won't be sorry. I've been on CPAP for 20 years and I can tell you that every machine I've owned has needed a repair at some time during it's life. Every one of us should have a back-up machine just in case.

Thanks again to everyone! I'm down to an AHI of 5 now, thanks in large part to the SleepWeaver mask... it's unbelievable. So comfortable, doesn't leak, lets me be in any position, and it WORKS. On my auto CPAP, my pressure is a lot lower too. It just seems to be a better approach to CPAP masks. I'm dreading the winter when I have chronic stuffy nose, though, and am still trying to fit a hard plastic mask. Now I'm trying the Mirage gel mask (forget the model), but it is giving me the same sore place on the bridge of my nose that the Quattro did.
The auto CPAP is working well for me with SleepyHead software, what a great thing to know exactly what's going on! Thanks again to everyone for your help.
