I, ermmm, still have my dead board that I was supposed to, ermmm, send to
Frank (sorry Frank, procastination I guess, I still have your address,
though ;-)
Anyway, Ed, if you think you can do something with it, it's yours. Like I
said, it is somehow dead. Nothing apparently is broken. It was not dropped
or subject to any shock that might have broken something. I'm not in
electronic, so I can't tell what's wrong. But maybe you could repair yours?
Plus, I'm only 15 minutes from where you live...
-Laurent.
