Build, well, components buy for 124-based ODS

There's no Visio for Office Mac, dang it. My employer offers a deal to get an official copy of Office for $10 and add Visio for another $10, but I don't want to use my stepson's laptop for any of this (nor is he a fan of the idea - I've scanned his brower history and can see why).

Does anyone have an OpenOffice template, or know of a Visio to OODraw translator?

I use an application for the Mac called OmniGraffle. It has a somewhat decent Visio import-export function, but I believe you have to buy the expensive version to do that. If you have the $$$ it's definitely recommended for doing anything diagram-wise on a Mac.

Maybe Dia? It's what I use rather than Visio at home.

So, here's my BOM. I don't have chassis or iron in here, nor circuit boards, pilot light(s) or indicators, but hey, you're a good ways down the road.

Finally got around to ordering all that - it's my Christmas present. Next step, build up the PCBs.
