Well, I tend to use http://www.doc.mmu.ac.uk/Acorn/ if I'm looking for a
particular Mike Cook article. However, I couldn't see one which fits that
description.

I seem to recall that an electronics mag recently did an article on running
OSCAR (a hardware MP3 player) from a car battery, so that you could fit an
in-car MP3 hard-drive. Anyone have that article knocking about? (I can't
find mine!) That would supply +12 and +5 at a respectable rating.
