Semi-disinterested 3rd party here....

I haven't used the TDS9090 myself, beyond reading the documentation, One of my
clients has been using the TDS9090 board for a while now and is quite pleased
with it.  In particular, the service he has received from TDS (in the U.K.)
and Saelig Co. have been *superb*. And the board has been "solid" and trouble-
free.

My involvement with the TDS9090 at present extends only to reading the
documentation, which seems to be excellent.  My client has found the docs to
be well scaled to his level of expertise -- an engineer who is just learning
Forth for his controller applications.  I've been impressed too -- the one
time I had to answer a question for him, I found the answer directly (on page
5!) after consulting the index; and so far, all of my nitty-gritty technical
questions have been covered.  Praise also to Saelig Co. for sending me a
manual promptly, so I could support my client.

P.S. to Alan Lowne re. "other ideas":  get Jack Brown to build a Forth
tutorial around your board like he did with the New Micros 68HC11.
