Forgive the horribly embarrassingly so-late-it's-early chime-in from a dork on his phone :P but it's worth noting that antistatic bags are generally conductive on one side (and only one side!) -- especially the darkly-translucent aluminized Mylar kind.
It strikes me that getting that conductive side oriented in the wrong direction could prove spectacularly catastrophic, so I thought I'd pipe up about that... I mean, fireworks can be fun, but usually not that kind, and as far as I know all the major holidays involving such things are either already over or way later in the year... could be wrong tho. ( :P ) ...but seriously, let's keep the "magic smoke" inside the componentry where it belongs ;) IIRC most of those shiny-ish bags should be multimeter-verifiable as to which side is which. _______________________________________________ arm-netbook mailing list arm-netbook@lists.phcomp.co.uk http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to arm-netb...@files.phcomp.co.uk
