The thing you apparently don't know is that the bisdn stuff runs on
exactly these boards.  The real problem isn't the board, it's the
different ISDN standards in the US and in Europe.  But I appreciate
the idea.  Don't look at me, though--I live in Australia, and though I
would dearly love to run ISDN, it's too expensive here.
