It was written, in the last line just above the picture of the serial!
I can't believe I missed it.
Well, at least now it looks like that aspect of it is narrowed down!
Cheers
Ty

Is it possible to get some clearer pics of it, I've found a few things, but to save hours of fighting with my scanner, a few photo's could help me ID the relevant model.
Cheers
Ty
