Sam: Thanks for putting up with me being picky and stubborn - I appreciate
the work you've done.
I'll chuck in $50 for the uber keyboard as well.

The Strontium SSD has been recalled.
We're getting a Corsair SSD instead, for about $10 more.

I still have to get through to netplus to tell them this.
So you have until then to object.
Also, I'm going to donate $50 to cover the cost of the keyboard I bought.
Then the club can afford to buy an uber keyboard and remain within budget.
