I'm really glad you like it! I've added a wireless PS2 keyboard to my 'Sam In A Can' - Now I can use that Sam without tripping over any cables! The update about that and other additions to it will be in issue 4 of Sam Revival which should be out in about 9 days time. I've even taken a weeks holiday from work to spend the time entirely for Sam stuff - including the DTP for issue 4 amongst other things! > To Collin Piggot, i don't have the photo's yet of the thing fitted and we > did not install exactly as you described in the manual.

I never thought of that - I just left the cables long enough so they could bend around the membrane connector, but I can see how soldering the 9-way connector on the bottom of the motherboard could make it neater and less cluttered, especially when there is not a disk drive in bay 2.
