If such marks were there then I missed them and at the time my job was designing computer circuits and such so I know what to look for. I found it strange that for something that was being sold to ordinary people it was bad design that the connectors weren't keyed, much less that they weren't even marked. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
