1.7 +One limitation that the board has when used with an Arduino Duemilanove board
1.8 +for programming is that it is not designed to be stacked on such a board. This
1.9 +could have been useful when putting such a combination of boards in a case
1.10 +designed for stacks of Arduino boards and shields, since there is otherwise
1.11 +not enough space between the female headers of the Arduino board and the
1.12 +underside of this board to be able to use jumper wires, as had been intended.
1.13 +However, breadboard jumper cables can be used to route the signals between the
1.14 +boards.
1.15 +
1.16 +Another potential change could involve the positioning of the VGA output
1.17 +connectors, these having been situated at the opposite end of the board to
1.18 +where an Arduino would have its USB and power connectors. It might have been
1.19 +more sensible to have put the VGA connectors, these being external, on the
1.20 +same end as the Arduino's own external connectors, with the programming pins
1.21 +either being routed via stackable header connections or through connectors on
1.22 +the end of the board that would be internal within any case or housing.

1.24 +Despite the above Arduino-related suggestions, this board was not designed as
1.25 +an Arduino shield, needing rather more flexibility in terms of providing
1.26 +connections of specific kinds, and although the intention was to make use of
1.27 +Arduino-compatible cases or housings, it was never envisaged that any
1.28 +particular case would be completely compatible with this board.
