I hope this is something that pans out. I am getting tired of the problems with the Mavericks. Have some that if you touch them they stop working, some that just don't work anymore after 1-2 uses. Gets expensive
Ok figured out some stuff. I assume it is working. None of the three LED lights are lite up, but I adjusted the contrast on the display and it says no pit probe now. I haven't plugged any in yet. I should see one of the three lights lit at this point?
If I push the button to the left the middle...
Going to have to mess around. When I push the button to the left the middle LCD light comes on. I can make the LCD bright and lower. Everything looks like it is in the right place and the solder joints look good. The new power supply comes Tuesday. I didn't attach the blower fan yet.

Hi all,
Haven't been around in a month or two. Been busy. Still have not built my RPI yet. What case is the best to order now? Going to start it in a day or two. I didn't even get the chance to play with the 3d printer at work yet:-(
