Apologies for the lack of updates recently. Back in October I found a disc containing 100MB of technical support info dating from 1997-1998 so the last five weeks have been spent sorting through it all and putting it into some sort of order. I suppose when you consider the data is at least 10 years old the odds of any of it still being useful is a bit remote but you never know.
