I have an 11/05 which has a Perkin-Elmer drive
just like the one you
describe.
In the bottom is a fixed (non-removable platter) and in the top you can
load
an "RL-style" cartridge. This is from memory, the system is in the old
house
PS. RL01 cartridges are not brown, but grey. RL02
are as you said blue.
I hate to disagree with you, but mine look just like the ones at the

In person (i.e., with better lighting), the accent parts are a dark,
chocolate brown.

That page is from my website, I took those pictures and still have those
packs :-)
I'd swear it is grey, not brown. Are my eyes really getting that bad?
