Hello to all that responded to my post;
               "Q: PC/AT Bus Pin-Out, Info/Hints/Tips"

Thanks to all of you that replied.  I was very happy with
the number and quality of the response.  I apologize for
taking so long to reply, and for the fact that due to time
constraints, this is arriving to you in the form of a 'Form
Letter'.

It has been outragously hectic here, as I am sure it is for
all of you.  My wife took ill and my business went crazy.
Which I suppose is better than the other way around.
Although there was that time when she got crazy, and
decided that .... well involved whipped cream, anyway ...

If ever I can help any of you out, please let me know.
I have some 8051 routines as well as some PIC stuff.
If I own it, you can have it.  If it belongs to someone
else, I can give details of the inner workings and how
to acheive it, but not the source.

I did visit all of the sites that you guys listed.  It was
all very helpful.  I also enjoyed the various suggustions.
You all know how to cut thru the B.S. and arrive at a good
solution.

Thanks again.
