I sent my order in around September 2.  A copy of my order form was packed with
my board and had a number 643 written on it.  That probably was my number in
the queue for my order.  (I don't remember the exact number but it was in the
mid-600's.)  AG encountered problems of their boards not working on all STs
due to differences in timing between machines.  They have a 2-chip fix for it,
and maybe they will install it on yours before they ship it.  That could save
you some time.


I have a 520ST
with 1 meg and it was quite a job getting it to fit.  I had to cut the center
post off the ST case so I could install it without interfering with the 
keyboard electronics.  It does fix but takes some creativity and determination
to find the right spot.  If it works as well as PCditto I only faster, I will
be extremely happy.
