[plug] upgrading to Duron

[Beau Kuiper]

Hi,

Another good place is Accord Technologies in North Perth. They can usually
find anything you are after (including weird things, like slot coolers),
and have great service. They are a probably not the cheapest though (gotto
pay for service somehow I guess) Their phone number is 9227 6121
