Chris,

I'm not trying to be funny, so please don't take this the wrong way, but
are you connected to Idratek in some way or are you just a very
satisfied customer?

I only ask because you often mention them in your emails, but I don't
personally  have any experience of Idratek.  I'd be interested in
hearing how you use their kit and what pitfalls (if any) you've
discovered and how you worked around them.

Cheers

Mal
