Perhaps so, (sigh). Thanks Ken.

Hey, just noticed you're in Australia! Tell me, where in blazes I can  
get hold of boot roms. Every distributor I talk to has never even heard 
of them. This is Sydney I'm talking about. Noone in York Street stocks 
them. If you've got any ideas where I can find one, I'd be really 
grateful to hear about it.

Cheers

Paul
