By the way, it's "Aries", not "Ariel".  I think it's funny that the title on
this web page refers to 3M and Textool brands, but the picture is indeed an
Aries.

I got out a spare EasyProg compatible ZIF socket and compared it to the
pictures, and this appears to be the exact same model I called for in the
BOM and have tested in the EasyProg.  It is even the version that is closed
with the handle down.  The other version will work, but won't match the
instructions.
