I'm probably the most anxious of anyone. Their first attempt at producing the boards was a fail because the didn't mask the connector fingers when they applied the HASL finish. They built a second set and this time the fingers weren't completely covered in gold. They also got some gold on the via's that next to the fingers, which didn't bother me since it has no functional impact. Probably my fault anyways for not putting enough space between the fingers and via's. They are redoing the gold finish on the fingers and claim they will ship by the 26th. We'll see.

Here is the BOM. Most of the parts are available from Digikey and I have included those p/n's. There are a few obsolete IC's but those should be available from Unicorn Electronics. Sorry about the formatting. I tried attaching a PDF and TXT file, but it wasn't allowed for some reason.

It looks like some have fallen out of stock. It's a constant battle for us vintage computer enthusiasts.
