Well, I got my miniboard PC boards yesterday (thanks Greg, et al.).

I'm going to start ordering the parts to populate it ASAP.  I thought I
would gauge interest in a group parts buy.  I know this has been done
before and there may even be some ongoing stuff - this is for any newcomers
and people that missed out on any other buys.

The only questionable part at this time is the 6811 (of course).  I'm going
to check with my favorite distributor in the AM tomorrow.  It looks like I
can get just about everything from Digi-Key.  A few odd ducks will have to
come from somewhere else.  I think Mouser has the L293Ds.

Anyway, who's interested?  Let me know ASAP if you would be interested in a
parts kit with OR without the processor.  I've done this a few times before
- I won't be making a profit, but I won't lose money either.  I usually
figure on the conservative side and come out about $5 ahead.  That's as
honest as I can be.  I'm going to do this pretty quick, so get back to me
IF YOU ARE SERIOUS.
