Can't wait to see it as it looks quite cool! On a similar note, I  
didn't score a C64 PSU at Goodwill, so I will take you up on your  
offer for your extra C64 PSU if you still have one. In the interim  
(and maybe in addition) I'm going to try and build a DC power board  
using a 12VAC power brick I did find. I figure I can convert it to  
12VDC and step it down to 9V and 5V with voltage regulators. Should be  
a fun side project anyway.

As for your SIDs, I can Frankenstein together a power supply so I can  
test your SIDs using my old way of powering my synth (name with two  
wallwarts). So I should still be able to have them tested and ready to  
go by next meeting.

Werd,

Tim
