Hmm... Is this because it's a "040"? Because most Falcons does not have
an FPU, and I would find it strange if MiNTlib didn't work on those.

Price is not bad I think ;)

£0.99 for five, shipping included. However, you need a socket for the
serial port as well.

This one is five times as "expensive" but comes with a socket.

What's missing? I seem to remember spending a lot of time on the wiki
when it was hosted on sparemint.org.
