    Sadly no, even if I could have gotten all the parts in, it would have increased the cost of the circuit board by about $100 to get rush delivery. Which, with 30 boards printed, equates to about an extra $3.33 a board. My goal was to make this as cheap as possible!

    Hey Anthony, I'd be glad to ship these anywhere.

    Just looking on www.usps.com, I did a *quick* estimate, looks like it would be about $6.80 to the Netherlands. It doesn't say how long it would take to get there though, just says it "varies".

    Sexy, sexy parts! All the parts are in and the boards should be here tomorrow.

    One concern that was brought to me by allthat, is mounting the board to the side of a projector. You may run into two problems, space or thickness of the protective housing. So I had an idea of making another db-25 connector wired to a ribbon cable that would just plug into the 16 pin header on the DB-25 breakout board. This would allow you to mount the db-25 on the outside of the projector by running the ribbon cable thru the hole, then just connect to the db-25 breakout board. I'll try and order up the parts for that soon. Not everyone will need it, and it should only be about $2.

    That sounds perfect to me. How long are you planning on making the cable?

    what about this for an idea.

    mount the breakout board anywhere in the projector then use a simple serial port extension cable to go from your breakout board to the output of your projector mounted to the side.

    That would be quite the short extension cable...
