Cameron,

100 dollars for the board is way too steep, I would
sooner just kickstart my SSTC program and work on nice
controller for my DRSSTC or whatever.  I plan on
getting into that stuff pretty soon anyway.

Maybe I should just breadboard mine too.  The parts
for Dan's board are about 54 bux via Digikey...unless
those components have gone up considerably..
