Title: Does Bob Roberts still in exist?
Post by: markrvp on January 27, 2005, 12:34:22 pm: I've been trying to log onto Bob Roberts website to find a part for the last three days, but the site doesn't work. Does anybody know if he is still supplying parts or if there is a phone number that I can call him directly.

I am in talks with him right now to provide a mirror of his site so in the event of a disaster you can use that instead. We'll see what he thinks is the best thing to do.

Post by: Jakobud on January 27, 2005, 06:16:53 pm: Yeah but its too bad you have to send him a freakin check or money order to order something. Makes me feel like I'm ordering something from the JC Penneys catalog in 1982... He is one of those weird Paypal=evil people.

By the way, how do you clear the cache? I deleted files, cookies, cleared history, and it still didn't work.

Not sure then. Deleting files under IE is the same thing. I'm running firefox if that makes any difference.
