Very nice. I may have to look into that as a replacement for my ancient UP600a.
I'd personally look into taking the path of an external bench +24VDC
supply, but I can see how it'd be handy to have it all self-contained.
Has anyone on the list built that one?

The downside,
of course, is that as the hobbyist-end-user, you are
somewhat out in the cold if you don't own a GAL programmer. They can
easily run to hundreds of dollars for basic ones, and, unlike an old
4K EPROM, they are not trivial to make programmers for from scratch.
