It's hard to really know sometimes... Some of the remarked chips are very good. One of the common tricks was to alter the writing on the top. Luckily the ink used tended to wipe off with rubbing alcohol. Simple lables pasted on top is a possiblity, usually you only find those with the less reputable dealers. You may want to do a web search, I've seen a site with some really good info on this but can't seem to find it in my bookmarks right now. :) Rick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
