I got another soldering iron. Of course, the solder will not stick to the PCB. Back to the drawing board for the regulator.
I recieved a heatsink compound, which I will not be using because the solder won't stick to the PCB!
More Mouser components are coming - a potentiometer for the clock control, a few more ICs, decoupling capacitors, 80 more LEDs, some more EEPROM, and a variety of resistors.

The Components are Coming
I have just ordered all the components left to order for the computer. Hopefully they will come within the next few weeks. I shipped them using the postal service, so no guarantees.
Pictures will be coming, probably starting with the general-purpose AC line voltage to 5 volt converter.
