Good news: the EPROMs I have are from straight from HHCs and are built into 
the carrier. Just plug and go. ;-) I just happen to have a metric buttload 
of 'em as well!

Better news: I was hoping not to pay $75 for buy-it-now, so I just put the 
$50 bid on it hoping no-one else would bid. The guy ended the auction 
early, so it's mine! $55 shipped, and already paid for. ;-)

Now to climb the stairs to the 3rd floor attic and find my HHC... ;-)
(That, and find my wire-wrap tool to hack up an adapter for my EPROM reader...)

Oh, Happy Day!

Laterz,
"Merch"
