And the winner gets to pay for shipping from AU!
What a GREAT idea!  |O
I didn't take it apart.
I turned it on.

The only stupid question is, well, most of them...

Save a fuse...Blow an electrician.

Maybe if the price prize is the stuff that he didn't use anymore.
And the price is significant but not significant enough to go to the Ebay..
So the contest will help him to get rid of unwanted stuff  >:D
for example, bunch of dev board, which maybe he will not use and essentially have no value on ebay..


Or some cheap T&M after teardown, like $50 DMM that dave only want to smash with hammer.. :-DD

A major manufacturer has just promised me some gear for a giveaway, so might see something on that soon. I don't think its big, a giveaway is giveaway. Plus yeah, I have some extra stuff I should giveaway.
