Thanks to you and Roger for replying. What I was really wondering
was if there was any incompatibility from converting from one
to the other (like maybe pin 1 is ground on one but it's pin 5 on the
other). But the implication of both of your answers is that
there is not. So I'll pick one up tomorrow. Thanks again.
