The motherboard that Jeme has was the third replacement I got from to
A-bit.  Each round trip took about 2 weeks, plus an hour roundtrip
drive out to Hillsboro.  I bought a replacement rather than wait.  One
of the advantages of selling it to Jeme is that I wasn't going to tear
apart my working machine *again* to see if the return was working, so
his testing was useful as a confirmation that it actually worked.
