Well as the one who started this a while back I guess its up to me to make a
status report:

It boils down to no significant progress.

Joe thinks that he can turn most of the glue logic into a PLD, then we would
have an IC part count < 10 possibly < 5. But he has been pretty busy and
hasn't had time to do the work on it.

Anders is interested in doing a re-design using the 68hc11.

I have been reading up on parallel port interfacing with the thought of just
writing some code and running a bunch of i/o lines and some glue logic with
10 plus test leads.

And I still have a bunch of BZ boards that this would be really helpful on.
:)
