I said it would be cheaper to refund you because it would be, this is the SECOND card I sent you and I sent it before your profanity laced tirade. So sorry I sent you something you so desperately wanted, my bad. I am happy to post the full contents of EVERY PM, as I keep them all just for cases like this. It typically infuriates the person who is already upset, but if thats what we are doing, I am happy to oblige. The shipping receipt for your SECOND CARD was posted, the admin removed it, feel free to browse my flicker feed for it Renato...
Yes I socketed the whole board. who can fault me for that? I said, and I quote
OVER TIME. not initially, you wouldn't prefer to have it be a user replaceable part rather than a desoldering mess if, god forbid, you zapped it with static electricity? (note: I am not saying this board is any more sensitive to static electricity than the next, but I must point out all facets of my decision apparently) I did imply they die regularly in PETs. And that is in fact true, they are 40 years old, so its not unheard of. again, I socketed every chip, would be cheaper not to, but, in the interest of longevity, I did it anyway....But the hex bus inverters tend to fail over time (not alot, but it happens in PETs fairly regularly)
Now, to publicly try to say these boards don't work? I am speechless, EVERY board has worked, from the very first prototype to the last one assembled. Jesus man, wtf is your problem? I get you are upset about the postal system and my perceived ignoring you (again, I do not live to post on this forum, as I actually do other things) but to make baseless allegations is childish and transparent.
Get some help, seriously....
