I agree.
however, this one is most definitely dead.  plus, I've already got a couple
2040s and a bunch of 2044s and if I wanted an SSM EG, I'd be looking for the
2056 rather than the somewhat more dodgy 2050.

I'm really glad to see the schemos though, because I'd like to see if I can
modularize some of the existing boards...

what did they do to replace the 2050?
