Me ? A master ? Not really. Im just lucky so far. I was fortunate
to do some soldering a while back when I was younger, and it just
stuck with me.
Having said that, always remember you have the potential to turn
something expensive into something junk real fast, if you screw up.

61 Mhz is pretty damn good for a machine from that time.

A wise move. 550 is pretty good. I just wish the faster G3s would come out.
