.. why the heck does it put a via right next to a though-hole part when it could just take the track right next to it :roll:

Just doing a initial autoroute to see where the bottlenecks are with where I have placed components, this is by no means the final version, and is a long way off, I need to add the SIMM socket yet etc..

I am going to move the oscillator and buffer, more towards the back end of the shifter, where there is a bit more room, it should help with the routing around the CPU etc...

72pin simm added. I have left the Falcon board on there for the time being, it is always possible I have wired up the SIMM wrong, so always good to stick with what works for now ;) The Falcon RAM board will probably be removed in the revision after this board..

I'm guessing something to do with the 16Mhz mod for the STF remake?

I just received some board this morning to make a neater job of my diabolical wiring hack to get the 16MHz mod working.
