this is why i suggested paul switch to the threaded spacers.  i'm
semi-coordinated,
but i manage to drop one and spend 20 minutes looking for it.  the threaded
spacers
would aslo provide a "stand" for the board when/if you need to troubleshoot
it.

just a suggestion, it not like i asked him to make the panels red or
something.
blue filters, white oscs, green eg's, and purple horseshoes.

ok, back to reality

No! I'm the one who asked for those! 

I do like the idea of threaded spacers since while it's a bit of a hassle 
during assembly, I notice it's much more of one when you have to disassemble 
the module for repair or modification.

JB Damn! I missing out on all the 320 fun!
