Not really...pretty straight forward at this point...that may change later when we have to connect all the wires. The most difficult thing so far was securing the CPU heatsink/fan to the board.

Do you have a desktop PC that you can open it up and look at those connections?

That wire wrap stuff looks good. I'm more worried right now of plugging all the connectors into the correct spots.

We're planning to do some more tonight, but I'm using Skip's warning about the low humidity....I'm going to run a humidifier for a few hours before we even touch anything.

I remember the old days when you worked on a pad with a thing attached to your wrist. I guess it was smart to solve that problem. Can't wait to see some more Jan.

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.
