According to Larry Pina, (I know I'm always quoting Larry!), the Sony part numbers are identical to the Apple part numbers *except* that two digits in the middle of the number are reversed. I.e. if the Apple part number is 1234567890, then the Sony number would be something like 1234657890. I don't know what the actual digits are that were swapped, Larry was telling me this from memory, but someone out there might want to check it out and report back. -Owen Owen Hartnett omh@cs.brown.edu.CSNET Brown University Computer Science omh@cs.brown.edu uunet!brunix!omh "Don't wait up for me tonight because I won't be home for a month."
