Ouch.  OTOH, so is this method, because I have to find another 63c09 & 
plug it into the empty socket and pull the 2 meg board & put a half meg 
back in. Just to test boot it for the bitbanger repair.  I have both, but 
I'm lazy in my dotage I guess.

But I'll guess I have to at some point.  But today I need to move a pair 
of aflac insurance policy's and begin paying for them myself as my 
consultancy status at WDTV has been canceled by the new owner, his 
daughter, who became the head honcho when Russ died this spring.  I'll 
miss him, he, believe it or not, was a good friend of mine.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
