I didn't anticipate the trickiness of soldering four rows of headers on the bottom of the board and two DIP sockets on the top, while keeping everything perfectly aligned so it would fit in the motherboard's ROM sockets. Mine was a little off, and I couldn't get it to fit right.

Tossing some spare sockets on the free ends of the headers to hold them straight during soldering should help.
