- Since it's a bare board (no case) and you are also touching inside your X200, you should be earthed/grounded.
- <a href="images/x200/strap.jpg">images/x200/strap.jpg</a> shows how I earthed myself. This is to prevent you
- from causing any ESD damage. The surface that you place components on should also be earthed/grounded.
- (for this, I used a shielded ESD bag with a wire, copper exposed, attached from the bag to the exposed metal
- part on a radiator, which was earthed - not professional, but it should work. see <a href="images/x200/mat.jpg">images/x200/mat.jpg</a>).
- Most people ignore this advice and don't ground/earth themselves, at their own risk. You should also store the BBB
- in a shielded anti-static bag when you are finished with it.
- (the principles above apply to any computer components, since they are extremely sensitive te ESD).
