I'm thinking of buying a Forth board based on the RTX2000 from Offete
Enterprises, Inc in San Mateo,CA.  If you have assembled and
used one of these boards, please answer any or all of these questions:

* Where did you get the RTX2000 chip and how much did it cost?
* Where did you get the SRAM chips and how much did they cost per chip?
* What are the other "four glue chips" required?
* Did you need anything else besides a soldering iron and wire clippers to
assemble it?
* How long did it take you to assemble it?
* What are its power requirements?
* How long have you been using it?
* What have you been doing with it?
* What devices have you hooked up to it?
* Did it perform as you expected?
* What did you like or dislike about the version of Forth in the ROMs?

Thanks in advance for any answers or additional advice concerning this
board.
