Hi guys! The new chipper checkers include: -4 chassis adapters (can be bought separately) - # 212117 - $11.20 - for CTC178/179/185/188/189 - # 212121 - $11.20 - for CTC195/197/203 - # 253684 - $12.50 - for CTC210/DTV306/MMC101 - # 253685 - $16.75 - for CTC211/DTV307/MMC102 - a printer cable - interface box - cd - dc adapter All this for only $119.97. I'm don't see the sytem requirements on my info but I have some arriving today or tomorrow that I can open an look in there for that info. I'm sure you can probably use an older pc. I have heard that these will be available from a new source other than Thomson in the next month or 2 and that a price increase will probably occur also. I'm sure on the first but not on the second. Let me know if anyone needs one or more info on these or anything else. Thanks, Jason Martin Excel Distributing Inc.
