You'll also want a RAM daughter card, too. There
isn't much on board. 2Mb
cards should be easy to find and nearly free. Anything larger than 4Mb will
probably be a bit expensive if sold seperately (my largest is a 4Mb).
Define "easy to find". =)
I'm contemplating knocking on the door to the company in whose skip Bruno
found the boards.

Hopefully he's experienced at desoldering
multi-layer boards. That's
a bit more difficult than two-layer, because the power and ground planes
suck lotsa heat and are difficult to clean out with a hand-operated
solder sucker.
He's got a hot air gun. We had a lot of fun with that and some PC
motherboards. At least it's cheaper than buying D-sub connectors in the shop.

En ligne avec Thor 2.6a.
It's amazing how many useful pieces of equipment are disguised as domestic
appliances: the machine for cleaning keyboard keycaps and shell cases does an
excellent job of washing clothes, while the tumbling machine for drying them
off also works for socks and shirts. The device in the kitchen for baking
small spray-painted articles can be used for pizza and muffins. And so on...
