Mark's devices will die also if plugged in backwards...takes about an hour or more to replace the IC's, same as the original...perhaps we could ask both Mark and Clay to put in a 1N4005 diode across the Vcc and Ground so IT shorts out if installed backwards and not the board...sort of a Silicon Suicide device...

Word about Clay's most excellent products (Vram address or Sync bus), plug them in backwards & they die. There is no fixing these. Mark Spaeth produces a replica of the original boards with TTL components that are repairable.
Personally I'm not too impressed with the Fluke 90 thingy, but maybe I haven't spent enough time with it yet.
