Bill - 
    Accidently I just had a look at the  16/32 bit static memory 
card that Wyse uses. [They sent it back to us from service- only problem 
was that we sent a Wyse50 Power Supply in for repair!]. 
    The board had at least 12-15 little black wires hand soldiered to the 
legs of chips and running all over the board to correct routing problems.
If I could wait -- I'd give them time to clean up the design and get into
a more normalized production mode before buying one!
