They ship with *socketed* 16450 UART's. I talked to Digiboard about them recently, and they said they would be willing to ship them with empty sockets or with 16550's. I don't know if they've got some minimum quantity they want to do this, though. -- Chip Rosenthal | You aren't some icon carved out chip@chinacat.Unicom.COM | of soap, sent down here to clean Unicom Systems Development, 512-482-8260 | up my reputation. -John Hiatt
