Extender Boards 104

[Jack Foultz]

Hello to the Group -

Just a thought about Molex.  They may not want to make a 'run' for us - BUT, do they still
have the die(s) - and what's it worth to them now that Heathkit is 'gone'???     The right
'salesman' might be able to buy that stuff for a lot less than 20K dollars - given that
Molex will NEVER earn another penny from it/them.
