..and I looked properly this time, and it had a switch. Was there a cut off
point (serial #-wise) when the change was made? The FTP site says
722XXXX, but mines a 728XXXX...
OK, so I'm delving around under the lid, and I see emblazened on the
motherboard of the aforementioned "old" P75:
Pipeline 50 S I/F with POTS
Also, interestingly, unlike the p50's I've done there is a completely
different serial number on the motherboard to the one on the outside
(9 digits instead of 7 digits)
Anyway, the reason I'm kinda making a hoo-har is the fact I'm in the middle
of upgrading ~100 p50/p75's to 5.0A, and the same will probably happen
in a years time, when the problem may not be so obvious :-/

Worked like a dream, playing with 5.1A now... :-)
Many thanks,
