Jeff Elliott comments about problems with a WD2010 and a Miniscribe 3085.

Sigh.

The combination DOES work perfectly WHEN ALL PARTS ARE OK.  In Jeff's case,
I suspect the WD2010.  I've heard from another person (in email that I've
just started to be able to look at today) that there appears to be a higher
than expected failure rate of the chips.

I'm working on getting replacements for those who participated in the WD2010
group buy of 6 weeks ago.  And I will personally test each and every chip on
one of my systems with a Miniscribe 3085.

I'm sorry for the delays; circumstances beyond my control have prevented me
correcting this problem earlier.
