Today I was at The Computer Museum, Boston, presenting The Handy Board,
and non-commercial controlers called Crickets.  The HB was working fine,
but one time I turned it on.  It diplayed:
"IC v3.1 Bet"
an the heart stopped beating.  It seems as if it wouldn't "boot"
correctly.  When I held the start button while I turned it on, to
disable the main function, it booted fine.  I also can go forward on
motor 0 but I can't go in reverse. I recently had I terrible hardware
crash.  While I was disconnecting the battery leads one of them scraped
along the bottom of the board, and blew a couple of chips.  Fred Martin
looked at the board and replaced the chips for me.  One of the L293
chips??  Any comments would be welcomed.
