ATARI STE TwiSTEr

[frank.lukas]

... there are Atari type PLCC sockets 8.3mm high and 9.3mm high. You can see the difference but whether it matters that much is the question?

[HigashiJun]

I guess that 1mm matters, because I *can* close the machine with the keyboard fitted, but it doesn't lay perfectly as it should.

[frank.lukas]

I can send you two 8,2mm ones you have a desolder station ...?

... but I can send it only as package for 16,- Euro without Tracking.


Ask BEST, he as golden ones or Exxos.

Thank you very much Frank.

I have already ordered one from exxos and will check it as soon as it reaches me.

If the socket is still too high, I will buy yours.

Thank you czietz.

I always have to recover from my vacation too, so I perfectly understand.

Socket transplant, why does this sound like some sort of TV series :lol:

[HigashiJun]

@exxos Thank you !

By the way, the ThunderStorm team is seriously working on the socket issue.

Hope they will have a workaround soon.
