Are you going to create a (Digikey) BOM list item Uze?
I can put it on the todo list. Problem is it has to be regularly reviewed and time spent finding suitable replacement. Parts goes obsolete/end of production all the time.

It looks like it'd be worthwhile. There are a few people on the X16 forum alone who have openly said they'd build a Uzebox if there was a kit and many more will be thinking that I'm sure. It is a couple of hours of work you'd be saving people in doing so. I'll tell the X16 forum when you've done it.

Jimmy Dansbo will be able to comment better on the relevancy of the current BOM as he built his Uzebox last weekend.

I think all Uze needs to know is that you were able to order all of the parts listed on the BOM without issue and that all of the component item numbers were still correct? I presume you bought them all from Digikey apart from the SNES connectors?

I am not 100% sure, but I think there were a couple of the parts in toe F5 BOM that I needed to find replacements for. Nothing too difficult, and all is ordered from Digikey.
