Thanks for the pointer!  The pdf instructions have a nice diagram
showing where all the connections go, plus it specifically shows the
use of a ESP12E module which is the base ESP8266 on a carrier with PSU
- simple enough to hook up.

I have the edge connectors.  I've had a soldering iron since I was 12
years old.  Just need to order some $4 ESP modules from Asia.  I don't
"need" a PCB if I put the ESP12E in a small box and run a short cable
to the edge connector, though mounting it on a board makes the
connector easier to grab to extract from the back of the computer, but
I can always print a connector shell.

Thanks again for the pointer to some very helpful docs!
