Maybe, but those prototype boards can be EXPENSIVE... Although Radio Shack
sells an 8-bit ISA prototype board for $20. I've seen similair boards for
16-bit ISA, PCI, PCMCIA and probably others at Fry's, but those are some of
the more spendy models(especially the PCMCIA stuff). Jameco has a nice one
with a breadboard on it(!!!) for $60, and prototype boards from $18-80.

Write down the listserver addresses and which lists you are on, unsubscribe
from everything, and then re-subscribe from the new account.
