Were using 4.7K (parts list says 2.2K but I changed my mind after and went with 4.7K)

Seriously considering getting one. I think I have the soldering skills but not sure about the debugging skills. But might learn a lot. Any considerations? Got access to a Falcon RAM card and a donor ST.

Most of the debugging has already been done design wise.. Fault finding relating to iffy soldering etc thats the hardest part , the "self inflicted" stuff :)

I've dropped the price to 35 for you guys in my store....

Need to keep sandord happy as well, as I need him to finish the PSU bracket ;)
