[Ron (r273)]

Those 40 ZIF sockets get to be a little pricey.

I was thinking I tried one of those and it stuck up to high on the board, if my CRS is correct.

I don't have one, but the picture here looks like there is plenty of clearance given the height of the tray lip.

Still, even if one bought a low profile one, it might be worth it if it prevents chip destruction.

Your probably right, it looks like it is. I told you it was my CRS!

Thanks poppo.

wouldnt it interferer with with the chip connecton to the board though or would it be like conecting a extension plug......what they should just make is chips with solid non bendable prongs....

I've used them stacked on sockets other than my S+ slot machines and never had any problem. Of course the best way is to solder it in place of the existing socket, but just plugging it into the existing socket should work just fine. So yes, it just acts like an extension.

Well Ken I guess you let the cat out of the bag, he meant the White Girl, I wasn't married to her, just lived together for 12 years, that video is out already as we sold over 5,000 copies (Big John Pudd does Debbi) but she got upset and I told her to go away when I started spending time with Shanquia in Atlantic City and I then married her but then I messed around with her twin sissta Tenisha and ended up living with her and ohhhhh boy the sheet was on, never and I mean never get involved with twin light skinned sissta's as those bitches can fight, but then even after both were gone I am still liked by the family, I hear from their Grandma often and she sends some home cooked goodies every now and then, ain't no way in hell  I am goin there though, single life is FINE 4 ME
