Are A1200 Kickstart 3.0 chips utterly utterly worthless, btw?

the KS chips in an A500 (and A2000 as well?) are a different size IIRC...

I've bent pin on a ROM Twice!


My God!  What did you use to get the chip in, a sledgehammer?  The pins on the KS chips are like 6ft across in comparison to x86 CPU pins, now they're on the fragile side (though I've managed to unbend several pins on a badly-delivered x86 CPU before, that was fun, the CPU still worked) :-)

@ PaSha

So basically, yes, my KS 3.0 A1200 chips are useless :-)

Although I wonder whether it would be possible to cheaply build a bridgeboard...
