Roy, From sitting on both sides of the issue, I'd like to try to dampen your flames a bit. Very often it really isn't the seller's (distributor, dealer, mail-order house etc) fault that something that really did appear to be in stock is suddenly out of stock. There have been many times where a manufacturer's inability to get floppies (for example) will suddenly and unexpectedly cut supply of their products down on a global basis. One thing to keep in mind is that Floppies are going through some of the same dynamics as ram chips these days. Anyway, just trying to offer a different perspective. Perry
