Got it but I don't think I'll need it. The cards name is not more than
31 characters.

Got NTK and of course a new PB, iMac, iBook, etc. ; ) NTK won't
launch. There were 2 files at UNNA and I downloaded both. They were the
same except one only contained the NTK app. I read the readme text and
it mentioned another file which I can not find, 1.6.4GM.
