[sdiy] Score: Silicon 1, Tim 0

[Tim Ressel]

Success!  After a bit of futzing with the code, the
DAC is responding nicely!  Whew!

Well THAT took all day. Started at 9am, got 1/4 of the
circuit working at 10:30pm. Its Miller time!

Tomorrow I will get all brave and see if the mux
works. Also I get a reward: tomorrow I'm going to see
Metropolis. yay.
