        NOT!!

` Could you tell me how much it cost you to get the new caps from IBM S'pore ?

S$58/- !!!!! Ha ha ha... "May I know how many items are packaged with
this part?" I asked. "Sorry..", she quirked. "It is S$58/- for...",
waiting for her reply, "..each I think." she said! EACH!

ps. you'd figured out I wasn't "robbed" by IBM Direct, S'pore.
        Assuming it was 4 per package,
    4 * $TP caps > $external PS/2 mouse
        308 * $TP caps ~= $my current machine + add_ons
        Oh yes, 1 * PS/2 Y-splitter = S$80/- ((;
