Subject: Re: [motm] What is all this 2.0 stuff??

From: Argitoth <argitoth@...>

Bill, you are always telling me about you, Will, and your life... I
feel like I'm reading your diary, it's cool.

Could someone PLEASE give me part numbers for "reddish-brown film
caps" for MOTM 485 before I go criminally insane! I want to hit that
order button at mouser.com. I have seriously tried to figure out what
voltage, tolerance, and model of capacitor that is, I really have, so
I'm not just being lazy and saying "I need this part number, that part
number, this that this this that that this that and that."

Thank you! PS Bill you have been invaluable in helping me start my MOTM synth.
