    Funny thing is, the variants only apply to the original console.

    Only by opening up the console can you verify the type of motherboard the console itself has.

    It's posted that you can determine if you've got a 1CHIP motherboard by going off the serial number starting with "UN3".

    Though all UN3xxx models have the 1CHIP motherboard, there are some "UN29" models that carry it as well.

    Only downfall is, anyone can easily move a console over into another "shell" thus defeating the whole serial number tracing.

    The later versions, called the SNES JR, all carry the same 1CHIP motherboard but are wired differently in that they don't produce the signals needed to utilize a component cable. It's only after modifying one that you can, but that starts getting expensive enough.

    Here's that cable I was talking about -

    Getting some exposure via the Skydio 2 FB group to some cool scenery in Italy. This one is from the Italian Alps. Some of these Skydio people really rock! This is the guy's first flight using the beacon to follow him on the bicycle.

    Flying with my 90 year old grandmother has been an experience. It’s been some time since she’s been on a flight and they’ve streamlined all the TSA bs she used to have to deal with.

    Bad car accident in the 80s required a lot of limb reconstruction.

    I guess I wasn't around in the 80s but I didn't figure stuff like limb reconstruction would have been a thing yet

    Does no airbags count if your clockspring wiring is bad?

    It was very basic back then. If it happened now she would’ve been a lot more mobile. From what I understand they went in and redid her hip and some other stuff later on.

    You’ll get to see it when I have the tundra exhaust done. Because the long tubes are here. Waiting on gaskets and the 300 series piping. Plus 2 cats. I’m doing half the exhaust now. Then Dumping it after the x pipe. Later I’ll add the mufflers and tail section
