Jaycar are retail after all I can get them in the UK - the problem is getting them in the "plain white" variety. Maxking (www.maxking.co.uk) sell the "Gold Card" and "Silver Card" cards, but they're pre-printed with a logo of some kind ("OpenPlatform"). I prefer the plain white ones because they're easier to write on; the OpenPlatform logo looks like it would partially obscure anything I wrote on the card (I tend to use a permanent marker to label the cards). FWIW, it's beginning to look like I'm going to have to contact the manufacturer directly :-/ Later. -- Phil. | Acorn Risc PC600 Mk3, SA202, 64MB, 6GB, philpem@dsl.pipex.com | ViewFinder, 10BaseT Ethernet, 2-slice, http://www.philpem.dsl.pipex.com/ | 48xCD, ARCINv6c IDE, SCSI -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.
