A little stupid.. I know about the rules for appending an S in the right place, I just
can't seem to master them.
I thought that perhaps Swedish does not have such a
concept but then
I saw that he does speak of power supplieS and fanS; he even talks
about making the CPU's pin compatible, although instead of multiple
pins of multiple CPUs that seems to suggest making the (single) pin
of a single CPU compatible with something...

Fun with words, and of course as usual surprising and
a little
disappointing to see how ready and eager some people are instead to
see insults or personal attacks in simple misunderstandings...
I should really know better than to write replies when I am tired and grumpy, sorry Fred.
