I talked with Mouser Electronics this morning, and they're willing to
"consider" discounted pricing for a Miniboard parts kit.  I'm faxing
them a parts list, and I'll post again when I get a price estimate
(probably no sooner than next week).  Anyway, I've always been able
to get some very good prices from them.  How many people would be
interested?

The kit that I'm submitting to them is basically the parts list in
the back of the miniboard specs, sans sensor parts, heat shrink tubing,
ribbon cable, DB-25 and 9 to modular jacks, and modular plug cable.
I doubt they'll be able to beat Alan Kilian's 68811 price, but
for the rest of the stuff we should be able to get some great prices.
I'll ask for price estimates for kits with and without the 68811.

Would people prefer that I include the sensor parts?

P.S.: Some of the parts I'm replacing with effective equivalents that have
    the same mounting requirements and electrical characteristics as the
    parts that Fred Martin asks for, but that shouldn't make any difference.
    Here's the list of parts that I'm replacing: Panasonic pushbutton switch
    (P8011S), SPDT miniature slide switch (EG1603-ND), 36 position female
    breakaway strip socket, power switch (SSW-222).  The breakaway strip
    sockets are being replaced with 32-position versions of the same, since
    Mouser doesn't carry ones with 36-positions.
