That's my recollection too (seems I remember ideas I disagree with
better than those where I agree). But I have half a memory of him
changing his mind, probably wrong, which is why I asked.

In any event, this kind of issue can be deferred when you do all logic
aside from power stuff in the CPLD or FPGA. We've been using CPLD in our
hobbyist project at http://bitchin100.com/remem_project.htm . But we
have to since our board has to be crammed into a TRS-80 Model 100. Also
we need several surface mount parts in any event.
