I seem to remember them saying something like that at UKHA2003 as well.

Its something that would be easy and inexpensive as they are just screen
printed overlays fitted to the front of the moulding. I was very impressed
by the design of the faceplate moulding. The one design has all the
neccesary holes for whatever combination of switches and LED's needed with
the overlay covering the unused holes.

Good to know that they are thinking of a revamp of the MFP. That is the
only
unit that looks out of place compared to the others. Its similar to the
look
you would get if you wired your house with MK Logic (as opposed to Logig
Plus with tapered top edge) and then fitted a Cooker panel from the
pre-MKlogic era.

I wonder if there is there anyone on the list other than David who has
installed Idratek ?
