Yep, I will have a working version by CocoFest (need to reserve my
room...)
The only issue I see with the current solution:
* The SND line. The digital data is bleeding over onto the SND line,
and I have tried to minimize it, to no avail. Suggestions for help
there are appreciated. I have tried cutting the traces on the PCB
and routing the line separately, but it's not making much of a
difference (I thought maybe I should use a separate line for the
SND data).
* On an 8 pos unit, if such a thing is marketed, the slide switch
only handles selecting the bottom 4 slots. I *might* be able to
find an 8 pos switch, but if not, then it means only 2 slots
(assuming most people have a CocoSDC in 3 or 4 or a SuperIDE in 3
and a Floppy Controller in 4 can be selected from the switch. (The
rest can be software selected)

This looks totally exciting. Did you mention if you will have
working versions ready for Cocofest? I think I would rather wait to
get this unit rather then try to find a working MPI on eBay, since I
still need one.

It is.
