that was it. It's had two characteristics, high density and lines could
cross (it was insulated). Since the "inner layers" were power and ground
they were easy to modify (wires could be seen and removed or cut) and the
transmission line characteristics were better than the then vogue 2 layer
boards. All the lead holes were plated through as were any vias.
