Find me a cheaper on in the UK that is guaranteed to work on a Mac from a reputable reseller and I'll buy it. It may be expensive to you guys oer there but we have to pay a little thing called VAT, at 17.5%, on computer stuff here. That was including shipping, at £4 (24hr) as well. I am planning to buy a bit stuff at once (mac to VGA adapter and a new Mac DB-25 to Din-8 Modem cable as it's a PC modem package) which will take the lot up to around £76 in total. Looks like the IIci might go on the back burner :(. Anyone have a USR 56k Serial Faxmodem? I'd like any reports if possible :). -- Mark Benson Vintage Macs List Nanny aka silicon_valley_pirate_uk (Yahoo!
