Cool, i've got a virtue chip. I do prefer a microswitch, will probly try and get my mits on an ego with aftermarket board before i decide to see what it feels like. Damn the LCD screen!To be honest its just a board... with a switch... the greatness of it depends which chip/code you use, I'm using a dm4 tadao chip in mine and its great, Its only worth getting if you prefer a micro switch trigger though and works out cheaper than buying a tadao or virtue board. You can pick them up really cheap on ebay, search worldwide and youl get one for about $23 + $15 or so postage.
PS: yeh it uses dips, has two buttons on the back and a multicolour LED.
