I, for one, would be extremely reluctant to run wires from the "computer"
all the way to the dash.  It seems to me one would be too liable to shorts,
picking up stray voltages, adding undesirable capacitance, etc., etc., etc.
I continue to be amazed that the Digitool works as well as it apparently
does.
