thats 2 words you dont hear in the same sentence since craplins tried to become a computer firm (and failed, and now seems to struggle for a direction).

Said EPROM is now programmed, so this bodge is no longer required and will be on its way to landfill soon....

Totally agree .. but since Tandy's went there are very few places left ... just a few independents, so you end up fighting the Maplins of this world and hopefully eventually get the bits you need.

And Maplins run the risk of going same way as Tandy, as they have the same fascination with computers and disco lights, rather than electronics bits  >:(
