I had a couple of questions about the schematic:

    * Tying IC7A pin 3 to pin 1 seems redundant.  Can't pin 3 simply be
      grounded?
    * DMARQ, IORDY have 10K pulldowns.  Why can't those simply be grounded?

Ruud, did you previously create a 8 bit to 16 bit interface for IDE 
drives for another project?  If so, is this design a subset?
