Your list looks comprehensive. 'Other' is useful to assign to any other device missed, or that may come along in the future. Also the letter 'O' does not get taken up very much, so less likely to conflict. The two 'R's for RAM and ROM unfortuneatly are the current conflict. Which means a bit extra work for keyboard shortcuts ... -- Malcolm Cadman
