A 2Meg Starboard2 is hugging the right side of my nearly 4 year old A1000 which is itself being hugged by a Supra 4x4 interface and all 3 of these beige entities get along just fine. I haven't grounded the PALs. In fact the A1000 I'm typing on has never been opened. The Starboard's been on 'er since late '86 and the 4x4 since early '88 and the whole schmere is powered on 24 hours a day. No problems.
