OK. Well, that's useful to know. Is it possible that it supports an
older model of the Sandpoint? Is anyone working on a ROM for the
Sandpoint? Is there any interest in having something other than DINK?

As far as I know, it hasn't been tried. I don't see anything obviously
incompatible with the 8245 that would prevent it from working, though.
I still just have the X2 motherboard with Unity X4 w/ 8240 PMC here.
