Hi Mark,

The problem is that the turned pin variety of socket is considerably more
expensive than the ordinary sort, at least over here - something like 5 times
more expensive! Then again I suppose it'll be worth it to permenantly remove
one common point of failure....

That's my plan, though I won't be seriously looking for one for a week or two
yet.

>....Also, you can use one of the Midway Space Invaders power supplies....

Hmm....no, even though I don't play it much I couldn't trash my Space Invaders
Pt II....took too much effort to get going in the first place.... :-)

  TTFN - Pete.
