I understand. That's not a problem. I bought another IDE card from Ed (ver. 2a), and I keep looking at it and thinking I ought to build it? But then I keep thinking about the definition of insanity (doing the same thing over and over, and expecting a different outcome.)! *grin*
The original card I built is a ver. 2. Is there any substantial difference between ver. 2 and ver. 2a??? I guess what I'm asking is maybe it's worth building a ver. 2a. card?????
