FDDI board) leap out and stab me with those little stubby
pins that protrude
from the top of the connector's solder points...the problem
is that applying
enough force to dislodge the damn card also jammed it up into
the sides of my
thumbs. it hurts, especially when it's the third time that's
happened in 5
minutes...
Ahh, but without the blood-sacrifice, the systems wouldn't run nearly as
