Oops! It's alive after I ripped it's head off!

Post by drlbradley » Wed Jun 15, 2016 10:33 am

So, after getting frustrated at the software setup for usb audio, I thought 'screw this, I'll just use a pi2' and set about removing the usb sockets and rj45 from the pi2.
As you can see from the pic, I had a bit of an accident!! :D but amazingly , it still boots!!

Either way, that thing is mutilated! That's awesome it still works though. At least now you (the OP) have a story.
