I hope this message is in the right forum. I am after any source (Name,Address,Telephone Number) of a -09 or preferably a -11 buster chip for a A4000. My friend has a A4000 with a -07 buster (I know these are only supposed to be in a A3000) and has bought a Retina Z3 card which does not work in his machine. It does work in my -11 buster A4000. The Wang warrenty here in the UK is unable to get them and C= spares are also unable to get them. The device is in a socket so I can change it myself *if* I can get one. Ant help gratefully received. Thanks Alan (Via autopilot, Gloucestershire,UK)

Alan, I picked up a rev 11 buster about a month ago from Software Hut. I don't know if they are still available but it might be worth a shot. Software Hut Folcroft East Business Park 313 Henderson Drive Sharon Hill, PA 19079 1-800-932-6442 -Marty

Alan, you may want to check with the Retina people, but one of the Noahji techs over here mentioned some time ago to me that the problem on the 4000 was NOT the SuperBuster chip but another less esoteric one. Since I wasn't installing one in my 4000 at the time I didn't pursue the details. DJ On AP from Queens, the thrill and excitement of the Big Apple Where a little paranoia keeps you healthy and sane …
