So, I built my 6 year-old PiDP-8 kit, here are my notes on the project:
1) the build instructions talk about installing momentary switches upside-down, my (OLD) kit had center-off momentary switches, so they rest center-off and have two momentary positions:

A question regarding #5) (you can tell I'm not a Pi OS expert)
Q- When you do the sudo apt update, does it grab a new OS if there is
one, that is does it only update to within say Buster, or will it
recognize there is a new and improved OS and download and install that?
Thx. Dale

It will only update the current OS. No magical upgrade for Raspbian.

Thank you. I suspected that but didn't want to try without knowing.

That's not true, to the best of my knowledge
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt full-upgrade
If my memory serves that should completely update the OS to the latest
revision.
Note: However, this may not always work, if the new OS has some
fundamental differences that cannot be resolved by apt.
