Thanks for the info. I laughed at many of the ads appearing in the Shopper.
Many seem to be poor English translations, complete with misspellings of the
product names. It's sad to see a distributor trying to promote a wide range of
products when it doesn't even know what the products do. I can't remember the
name of one such company, but it says the Everex boards RAM-3000 and RAM-10000
both are LIM 4.0 compatible! That may rightly be called deception, but I think
it's just ignorance. It reminds me of the problems experienced at Radio Shack.
Salespeople there are not adequately informed about the products. Those who are
do not stay there very long.
