IT'S AAALLLIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!!!!!

Thanks to some fine-detail surface-mount soldering work from DJ Delorie, some surface-mount PLCC sockets from Op-Amp Electronics, and two preflashed BIOS PLCC flash RAM chips from Bios Depot (ignore the weird cosmetics at the "front" of the store), vorlon lives again.

In other news, I drove from here to to Deerfield and back (a 90-mile round trip, by the route we took, with about a four-hour break between outbound and return trip), and my knees held up fine.  (My toes hurt a fair bit by now, though.  But now I can take my shoes off at last.)

Next up:  Taxes and resumé revision.....
