- <sgsit> do you know if it's possible to flash thinkpads over the LPC debug connector at the front edge?
- <sgsit> that would make life much easier for systems like this
- <sgsit> all the Wistron manufactured systems have this thing called a "golden finger", normally at the front edge of the board
- <sgsit> you can plug a board in which gives diagnostic codes but i'm wondering whether it is capable of more
