It looks like a fine piece of kit, at first sight..although the description is borderline risible, meaning the detailed instructions may have lost something in translation. Hopefully nothing critical, though.Being one who can be impulsive from time to time, though...I'd probably press that button, and be damned @) :lolno: :lolno:

Yes I definitely plan on doing some more research on the software, it's no good if I can't get the design right. Then I have to secretly amass the funds, and then......

the nice thing about the latest unit is that it will work on A3 board, it has a 2 year guarantee, and it's sold by a company in Portsmouth.

It looks pretty solid too.
