I didn't know about the drama mentioned above.

How much did you pay for shipping and bank transfer fees?

Shipping was 33 Euro. Bank transfer was $15 AUD but that may vary between banks. I did mine through Bank Australia which just pushed it through Western Union. So base line machine with shipping and transfer today would be $358 AUD. - Michael ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Committee Member - Free Software Australia - http://www.freesoftware.org.au/
