i know this is for the lols, but you'd be surprised how often stuff like this happens... bodge wires and dead bugging it are much cheaper than re-spinning a board/IC. anything to get the boss off your back, just make sure to give your technicians a case of beer/beverage of choice for the extra effort fixing your fuck up.

I've seen bodge wires but this dead bug looks like about 80 connections. Techs don't ever have to do that do they?

not if you want to make it back to your car at the end of the day ;-)
