Re: Sockets for the ICs

I think you guys did a great job building a turnkey kit. I especially like the instructions for testing each step of the way after power, clock, etc. Thanks for creating this! I'm going to toy around with the Gigatron and an Arduino for loading code this weekend.

Re: Sockets for the ICs

Hi,

I just completed my Gigatron. I went ahead and socketed all the chips. Probably the most difficult parts were finding 20 pin sockets at a good price, and bending the chip pins so they fit the socket.
