I cannot stand beans (ask glenn for more info on that) and swamps are crooks too.

I'd modify IDM's for guys on here, but them I'm responsible if it breaks. and I cannot afford that.

naw, you'll have to order them from digikey or someplace like that.

I bought a bunch to send out to guys who wanted to do it, but I cannot find them.

Talyn is 100% correct. Beans and Swamps have a rip off mentally. They both will answer the phone on the first ring and then take your money. After that, good luck in getting ahold of them for any help or whatever you need. There voice mail boxes will be full and there are no email replies. Trust me, don't give them your money!!!
