I did chose Machined Tooled Strips for a Couple of the Duel CPU Boards..
( I bought 8 total )
I currently have Two, CoCo 2s and a CoCo 3 with the CPU replaced with a
Machined Pined Socket, so experimentation indicated that I should use
Machined Tooled Strips to connect them...
My CoCo 1 and Tano Dragon have Duel Wipe Sockets, so I will build a
couple Duel CPU Boards with the more common Square Pin Strips..
You can get reasonably priced Machined Tooled Strips from Jim's website
or from China off of eBay.. I bought mine in a Rush just before
CoCoFEST! and paid quite a bit from a US Suppler...
