Does anyone have any schematics of a BUIS savior (to do it yourself).
I'm interested in making these, and maybe even selling them to

generally you could
wire two identical FlashROMs in parallel (except the /CE signal).
Heck, you could wire as many as you'd like in parallel, as long
Six boards are 'so many'? That's the entire EPIA range. ;-)
