Yep. It was Laurie Williams. He said when he first started nothing was available to build with so he had to make everything.

If its an ebony board, it should be possible to fill mix up some epoxy with ebony dust and fill with that, check the colour as you mix it to get a good match.

Kurt,

Most computer DVD drives will play US dvd's as well as your own zone.

Happy building!![/QUOTE]

Down in this part of the world you get about 5 chances to change the
country coding on your computer DVD drive and then the drive locks on
the last setting.

Multi coding DVD players arent hard to source though.

...as they do the world over. I've yet to see a PC drive that isn't region locked. Many are hackable (download new firmware, void your warrantee, but region free), some can be avoided via certain software doodads (I think, anyway), but none play several regions (unless you count '0' as a region, anyway).

In terms of standalone players, many, many have remote control hacks available. See videohelp.com for a database of players, hacks, features, etc.
