I don't know. It seems odd that they would have a minimum of $50 for the
cheapest way to order (web based, no 'live humans') but no minimum for the
more expensive way to order ('live humans').
I have placed orders by phone in the past for as little as $4 (thermal fuse
for a 10811) and there was not a minimum. It's been a while though.

In the 3458A, the firmware is in an EPROM (6 EPROM's for the older units)
and can be removed, a socket placed, and easily upgraded by purchasing the
latest pre-programmed EPROM (or EPROM's for the older units) from Agilent.
The only problem is they have a $50 minimum for this $18 part for the
later
units.
My wife thinks I am going to appear on an episode of 'Hoarders'.

Hi Joe,
I think Agilent will waive the $50 minimum order if you phone it in. The
minimum only applies when ordering through their web site. Correct me if I'm
wrong...
