[DSP-10] Jumper wires

Tue, 5 Mar 2002 21:13:24 -0700

This is the first I heard that there wasn't enough wire in the kit.  Please
let me know these things so I can update the assembly manual and packing
future kits.

Any other gotchas I should know about?  Many have reported they have enjoyed
the kit.
