E-Z bleed is very simple, efficient and cheap.

It consist of a plastic bottle of half a quart, in which you pour some fresh brake fluid, with 2 plastic hoses in the cap. One goes to a plastic cap that you install on your brake fluid reservoir instead of the regular cap. The other hose goes to a valve that you plug on your tire valve. As soon as the valve is open, you have 30lbs of pressure pushing your brake fluid. When you open the bleeder valve on the caliper, the old brake fluid is pushed out, along with bubbles and debris. Of course you need another reservoir and a small hose for the old fluid. To bleed a car takes 30 minutes. 10 for bleeding and 20 for jacking the car and removing the tires.

I think that E-Z bleed can be found in the Roundel classifieds.
