Excellent, I'll look forward to it.  Does the port currently
support X?  I've got the patches needed to get the X CL driver

Interesting - I tried some 72 pin SIMMs I had lying around but
they didn't work.  I'll see if I can dig out some more.

Do you have the manual in electronic form?  I have found next
