Re: K5 OS/ROM upgrade order

Hi John,

thanks for the information. In fact, my concerns were more about what I 
should write on the form, I heard stories about lost goods in some 
countries' customs because the description was wrong, etc.

Also, shipping -might- turn out to be $6.20 in some countries if the 
overall weight ends over 100g (which I doubt). Anyways, that would be 
only $0.20 more than the $6 I talked about eariler.

As for packaging, I thought I could probably recycle my bubble envelopes 
which I accumulated over the years, but I'll ask once it's time to pay 
(after I'll have programmed and tested the chips) if people prefer a 
new(extra $) or used envelope.
