Good piece that, Steve. There's always a few who have to hate anytime anyone does anything. If it were left to them we'd all still be sat in caves chucking rocks across the way at each other. They're of no consequence.

No progress yet, Might see if I can bring the Akai SW175 to NEBO now the terminals are fixed, though.
