Now if only I could afford such a nice soldering station...
I've got to continue away at my activities with my trusty 20watt
soldering irons.
However I've got to fabricate a nice miniature soldering tip to
properly attach such soldering jobs as the NewerTech eMate Memory
Upgrade OR my next possible project of installing a MiniDIN8 since I
can't find a SER-001 :( those darn soldering locations on the
mainboard are a pain with my eyes and even a magnifying glass
still....
