Using Mr. Atari's MyIDE interface yet again (since it's awesome) I wired up the motherboard. Oh yes I guess I should explain what the MyIDE is. It's a custom OS ROM and some support circuitry that allows you to attach an IDE hard drive to an Atari computer and use it as a large, fast disk drive. CompactFlash works too since it's pin compatible with IDE. Check out his site! (opens in new window)
Notice below how I kept things much flatter than before - it kind of pained me with the last laptop that in 2005 I was working with a lot of soldering I did in 2003, when I started the project. That's the one good thing about getting older, you only get better at [most] things.
