Projects, projects, projects... I have so so many!... Though now that I have a family... I've found that the time left available for computers is much less than I had before, which has put just about everything on ice and has got me to think and re-evaluate things. I literally have way too many and unfortunately not enough time, I never managed to finish many of them prior to my daughters arrival... so I have now begun the process of deciding what I am unlikely to finish, what I will be able to finish, and what i will be aiming to finish first.
The main flagship project I have... which has been for some time, mentioned previously in another thread, is the performance comparison of all the motherboards I have that support both a 386 CPU and VESA Local Bus... to find the best performer. I have encountered eight boards so far, and although the testing of motherboards sounds relatively straight forward enough... I still have to do a few minor modifications and repairs first before I can continue with testing, this... and to pick out a new suitable HDD as a test drive.
Have you guys any interesting and ongoing flagship projects out there?... maybe being kept under wraps until there is further progress?
Do you have everything you need or are you waiting/searching for other parts to complete the project? If so, what is the part and how long have you been searching for it? I know that I have been waiting/searching years for a part I know exists but just have never seen for sale!
Also... how long have you been doing this current project... is it a slow-burner? or have you had the time to knuckle down and punch through it fairly quickly?
