Stuart	JD, it already happened here I do believe that some day I'll walk in to RS and there in the parts section will be nothing but phones, computers, etc. That's what happened with Tandy (Radio Shack's UK operation). They used to sell electronic components, jacks, switches etc. Now it's phones, radios, R/C cars etc. I never used them much anyway, because they were too expensive... By the way, the cheap switches mentioned here last week aren't listed by Arrow UK, so it looks like Maplin is still the only source for DPDT foot switches.
