I'm finding that with small quantity PCB makes out there,
it's faster to design one the way you want it and just have
them cut out. I made up a little CHARGEN adapter so you can
have 2 sets of characters at once and switch between them.
It was for a customer and I plan to make up a set of my own
and have the Apple set and mine switchable. I put 4 on the
ExpressPCB's prototype sized board, and I get 3 for $59
shipped. That gives me 12 altogether, no problem. I could
have gotten 5 on a board, but they were so close together
I was afraid I'd goof cutting them apart. With parts they
are about $8 each cost, so $10 is not bad for them.
