OK, here goes:

Hello Chris' girlfriend,

Allowing Chris to buy some RS-485 chips will give him the opportunity to gain experience with them. This he can add to his CV, increasing his value to potential employers, thus increasing his chances of gaining new employment soon.
All that for about a pound; that's real value for money.

Best regards,
Rob Klein.


Well Chris, if that doesn't do the trick, I don't know what will :o)

All the best,
Rob.
