is anyone in southwest UK (and can pick up in person) in want of a SE FDHD for a negotiable price? i don't have the space to keep this one.

mouse is missing, starts up and looks for boot so electronics are mostly ok but hard drive isn't, screen is incredibly dim and grows dimmer by the second suggesting either analog board recap or CRT failure

can anyone help me figure out what diode might've been here? another one in the same board with the same footprint reads 3U and in a pinch i could take apart another working chumby but because it involves peeling off glue i would rather not (and i don't think looking at that one would tell me anything)

i believe this diode is keeping the chumby from powering as without it RAW_PWR and GND on the chumbilical read 0V although i can see the input 12V if...

i have automatic test deployment set up from pressing F5 in to seeing my widget running on my

this involves FTPing the output SWF to my server and then making the chumby play that file from the internet. no USB drives needed!

there's a classic mac os inspired clock! and the calculator and puzzle are interactive in it!!

poking and prodding at it more and getting very happy with the results

not sure what settings if any at all i want to surface to the user, unlike ditherinator
