    It turns out that the Arduino is now on revision 2 and this one does not lend itself to my easy sex change operation - there's no way to install a crystal without major surgery. Had I known then what I know now, I would have ordered the Arduino Duemilanove which does have a through-hole crystal as well as a socketed Mega328P.
