[Coco] RETRO innovations dual CPU PCB

[Salvador Garcia]

 I've these pin strips for Arduino Nanos. Yeah, they are too thick and when I push them into a socket it is for life because any attempt at removal might permanently damage the socket.Now that we're in this conversation, I may end up ordering the machine tooled strips and use those instead.

 Oh, yeah.  They are way too big (.025”) for a DIP socket.  I would even imagine they wouldn’t fit in some sockets.
