No problem. However, using today's faster logics (F, AS,...) will cause problems. All wires run in rather crowded channels and cross-talk becomes a problem. Also, you have to have reasonably good solder skills. PWR and GND must be dealt with by other means. Also, this method is not as fast as wire-wraping, but way cheaper. -- Andreas -- -- Andreas Nowatzyk (DC5ZV) Carnegie-Mellon University Arpa-net: agn@unh.cs.cmu.edu Computer Science Department Usenet: ...!seismo!unh.cs.cmu.edu!agn
