[Coco] Reproduction Program Pak Boxes

[John W. Linville]

"Purchasers can easily cut them later,..."

You must be envisioning something other than I am!  Yeah, I _could_
cut-out the window myself if I don't mind having it look like something
done as part of a toddler's art project... :-)

Out of curiousity, what clever means of cutting-out clean box windows
at home do you have in mind?

Use a heavy cardboard, at least for the bottom, and use spacers and screws with washers to mount the board to the case. Would have to be careful inserting and removing though. Maybe "ping" the sides in to contact the PCB near the "back" of the cardboard case... Frank Swygert
