A500 oddities & upgrade suggestions

Re: General Stuff(tm)

And the rest has arrived. I think I now have enough 74LS04s to last a lifetime. :-) :lol: It may be a reflection on when I was at Uni...but we used to use NAND gates to implement pretty much any other logic function as a stop gap. It may have been 'inspired' by the VLSI parts of the course we were ...
