Also - for anyone interested. A good supplier for inexpensive, ultra =

fast delivery components (Unfortunately no PIC's). =

I bought their Crystal / Resonator bag and their IC socket bag and the =

value for money was well worth it. Consider the price of a 40 pin ZIF =

socket from most stores is between =A39 and =A313 - for =A33.99 you get a s=
et =

of assorted ic sockets with a ZIF included. The packaging was also of a =

high standard.

I have no vested interest in this company - just got to give credit when =

its due.

John
