Yep.  I recieved mine a while ago.  I had to wait a while for the rest
of the goodies to arrive.  Everything is installed now and I am cruising
along at 13.71 MHz (according to the FTA's CDA), but not without some
initial problems...  When I first installed it, it would run fast, but
only with the cache RAM set at 8k (w/ 64k installed).  After much 
fiddling, it would run at 8MHz and set at 64k cache.  I heard that ROM
01's are noisy so I added some shielding around the cache RAM, and
things are running great.  I've had a couple of crashes in GS/OS, so
I'm going to try adding a little more shielding.

Many thanks to Ken!  The disk of instructions & precautions were very
helpful!
