A/C compressor got me

The A/C compressor seized on me on the way to the mechanic. I started hearing a rattle from the front right of the engine and decided to take it to my indie the next morning. Four blocks from him I started getting smoke from under the hood (belt). Pulled over and called the tow truck.
I've been stuck at home maybe once or twice, but I wouldn't consider that stranded. Darn! I can't make it into work. Also agree with Snowmobile on "Saabnet = fewer times stranded." This forum has been a lifesaver. My car would have never made it this far without the support of Saabnet. I found this community when I was researching Saab's back in 2000 and one of the main reasons why I decided to purchase my '99.
My wife's '99 Camry (165k miles) has never left her stranded, but I still consider the Saab a better car.
