It is good to see the Minimig getting a makeover as the design is more or less what Dennis rolled out all those years ago.
I look at my board with the soldered RAM chips and patch wire, the cut solder joint to boost the HDF speed and the ARM board and think back to my first days with it when it couldn't even write to an ADF, there was no HDF file, no turbo mode, no detailed on-screen configuration and having to use a serial link to a PC to reflash it. It has come a long way, but what are "optional extras" really need to be "standard" now.
