Hi Reinhard,
yes I remember that now you mention it, the Conrad's were said to be a 'rip off' of another company, I can't remember which that was, and if they still make them, probably gone 'bust' I guess.
I've also used motors from Tillig, they're fairly good too but a bit tedious to set up I found, and of course then you have the Fulgurex ones, they are also very good.
For all of the above goes that they are flatter designs, not important for most home layouts, but for modular boards that is a big plus, having no items stick out from below, or having to make the Fascia higher. It helps in making things transportable etc.
