Sorry about your busted hardware.

I have an untested computer card (v1.7.4) and microdesktop (v1.?, I've
got to lay eyes on it to verify the version).  I am interested in
setting it up and would be happy to test your boot-image.

(I'm also interested in being able to generate a boot image from
source.  Do you have notes on how you built it?)

I'm a few days away from being able to set things up, I believe.  Then
I can try things out, verify that my computer card works and try out
your boot image.
After that we can send the boot image to CrowdSupply.

When I can lay my hands on an oscilloscope, I intend to
carefully/gingerly test my microdesktop board.  I get the impression
from what others have written, there's a pathology with either the pcb
layout or the assembly around one of the regulator chips.  So I'd like
to observe it misbehaving without burning anything up.
