It is only $20, but solves the slowness of the Mega 4 loading, and also some minor compatibility problems with some programs that expect to be loaded near the top. Eidco Resources/POBox 4336/N Hollywood CA 91807. It does some other nice things to work around problems (like rez changes). I have no affiliation with Eidco except as a satisfied customer.
