Also, I think it should be said that for $150, the wiggler is a great
bargain and very useful for doing initial bringup.  It's certainly
capable of programming the dram (UTM) and getting initial boot rom
code going, even if you have to use a Windows machine to do it.

True (and I love the bdi2000), but it's 16x the cost, so each tool has
a place...
