PS.? You picked some very nice low profile sockets!
Hi Josh!
Those sockets are great. Yea when I made the Keyboard and the CPU I got them correct, but when I reordered the sockets for the SIO I messed up and got the 01000 and the 03000 wrong from Mouser. I was not too upset because its .1 inch higher and I am going to be happy with that.
Not really gonna put it into the Altoids tin. The sio kindof makes that too high as well. I used to repair ASR33 teletypes back in the day, and have worked with a Linotype a small bit when I was in that industry. Yes I know how cool that is. The mechanics in the asr was amazing as well! I even remember some stories about the guy that designed it too. To me when I hear that sound, I still think of that power.
