content: Tim, try mikrocontroller.net. The PREMA trinkets are out of support now, so I think there might be a few fellows in Germany willing to offload one.

content: I had to replace the hard drive in mine(slow and noisy not dead), removed the scandisk from cfg when not shutdown (programming error in my logging), and I did some capacitors as a preventative measure since they're placed next to regulators but haven't had any other problems.EDIT: I've owned it for 2.5 years.

content: Hello from the past, I think. If not mistaken I sold you my 8017. Missed it ever since in scouring the planet I've acquired 2 of which neither boot. I have not opened either for actual inspection. Maybe something loose is stopping the boot, , but doubt it so must start from scratch with an image.They are clean units just not go. One has multi-channel scanner the other has rear-jack field option.Any chance of getting an image?Any advice appreciated.Pre ThanksGene Silvernail
