One reason to get the EvilDragon Signed PCB..

[TrashyMG]

Spare parts.. My headset microphone died, until my replacement shows up I had to improvise.. After a de-soldering the microphone from the signed PCB and soldered on an 3.5mm audio plug and some strategic twist ties. I got a working solution.. 

Spoiler

I know not too high tech work, not really cost effective either, but figured I share..

Also I figure if a nub goes I could borrow from it too...

Forget the microphone. Gimme that Model M in the background.

I need it for spare parts in case mine dies.

Yep, I bought a signed board partially to support the Pandora, but mainly cos I broke the original power switch on my Pandora.

Of course, I still haven't got round to transferring the switch over, but the thought was there.  I'm not actually sure of the best way to make sure the switch is perfectly placed to line up with the switch face plate.
