I guess I'm looking for the horror stories... Rob Montgomery CCNA MCP IA Systems Analyst Sytex, Inc./ Naval Special Warfare Command Rob, I've had the displeasure of watching a guy insert a sup. engine into a Cat. 5000. He failed to check the pins on the module, and the inside interface. When he was met with some resistance, a humanistic "give it a little more pressure " resulted in more than one bent pin. I retreived an ultra small pair of needlenose from my car, but that only resulted in a broken pin. This guy does this kind of job day in, day out. Somehow the 5000 was shipped to him with some pieces floating around in the chassis. I believe the male interface was inside the chassis. I wasn't about to replace him for a week after seeing that. Moral: When you have something that exspensive in your hands...be respectfull and logical.
