Brad, we have a LUCAS board that only gets to the WorkBench Screen.  We
have not spent much time debugging this board and have not checked to see
if it would boot with 1.1  As soon as we try the other boards (we have 5)
I will summarize our experience.  One minor gripe is the layout has square
pads for the monolithic chips, but does not have polarity indicated on the
tant caps.  One thing the gentleman with the non-working board did look at
was the 16M clock.  He said the rise time was pretty close to the spec as
were the levels. (15nsec, 4V and .8Volts, specs quoted from memory)  Any way
we have been very impressed with the board.
