I've had this sort of project on my mind for a year or two. (Since my
first run in with the HDSP 9652 under Linux in early 2003.) I am,

chips, but my engineers had done boards for our chips.

Coincedentally I was laid off yesterday and am sitting at home
thinking about what to do with myself during my current delimma...
