Well, I'm sorry I can't help you but if you ever do get in contact with the 
manufacturer or even a reseller, you should let the list know. I'm sure a 
lot of people are still looking for those things.

Again, I'm sorry I can't help you but I can vouch for the usefulness of 
those PC Weasel cards. It seemed for a long time, BIOSes were built so you 
couldn't get to them even with a PC Weasel. But I have one and it has worked 
in my last 3 machines going back 5 or 6 years now. Another thing they are 
useful for is making a bootable CD or pen drive. You have access to the boot 
prompt with a PC Weasel.  Having one of those things saved me more than 
once.

I wonder if we could talk the manufacturer into sending out an order for a 
hundred or so of those cards on the possibility that there might be a few 
blind systems admins looking for them.
