Djy, old chap. From there because it was the cheapest & they offered immediate shipping. Sorry, don’t know about any rf-ir doohickey. I say, old boy, looks like you're right. At the time I bought mine Minshull Oak, at roughly £114.00,was the best I do. (That's was about 18 months ago). Seems like times have changed. Now that MO's price has rocketed(?) to £134.99, it would appear Bloo, bloopy doo's $112.95 (even when then taking into consideration shipping and duty) is pretty hard to beat. As for all the flames, fear not old fella me lad. E eper got a lot worse when he first started. Now look at him . . . just the odd insult or three. (Mind you, that's probably because he winds 'em up so much). Hey, ho. Anything to lighten a rather dull day.

Anthony. Sorry, didn't mean to pry. It's just that I used to do a lot of work for Alcan in the UK some years ago. Brought back some good memories, nice company to do business with. If I remember correctly, they were the only company I ever visited that used a Cray Supercomputer for their modelling.
star! How did you get my picture? I wasn't feeling my best on that day. Mind you the bloke on the left is a little scarey too don't you think?
djy. Yes, bit of a shame about the cost difference. Don't know why it's higher now, I didn't realise they had sold cheaper before. There is another supplier in the UK offering them cheaper than Minshulloak, I feel like a bit of a bufoon for not getting in touch with them now, but such is life. Thanks for the support old bean, top hole, really.

I visited their head office in Banbury, Oxfordshire many times. My company used to supply and support their PC systems. I think I installed my first RAID server we ever sold there. I seem to remember holding my breath whilst testing it in front of the IT team. Wow, that must be around 1993/5? Doesn't time fly! I don't suppose you know any of the people there around that time? I am terrible with names, I think the IT Manager was Keith or Kevin, don't recall his last name.
