A little heatsink paste and a flat headed nut and bolt work fine. I never did like that rivet arrangement and spoke out against it. But then, I wanted the 7805 to be mounted outside the case at the other end of the board.

Many of the components get a price break at 20 or 25, so making 25 would not cost that much more than making 15. If you have ten extra almost free, it means you can recover the cost in the first 10-15 sales which is a good motivation. I, and I imagine a lot of other people, would have bought a Q60 i...

I think it's fair to say that if someone were to make a batch of 20 or 25 Q60s, they would all sell.

I guess it is true, I do have 11.25 years on you.

I might add, if you have the thru-co on that RAM expansion, you can just squeeze on a Qubide over the top, and the SQB v3 will happily tun all three cards off its own PSU.

The riser on the V3 feeds post regulator 5 volts. Be aware of that.

I have 40-some Mplanes in stock.

Yes. A 512K RAM daughtercard can be added in the second row, just by adding the pins.

You need to connect as follows in the two pics: If you need more info, let me know.

Hi all. I have sold a grand total of three MPlanes in two years. There is no demand for them. I think they're the best design electrically, but I suspect some people don't want to cut off their ROM port and use the ROM port on the backplane. I know the MPlane was designed specifically for a mobile p...
