[Robotgroup] Basic Stamp II Repaired

[LHudson]

That's awesome!  Now I can make my LUNA prototype for Java / Linux.  Bonnie is convinced that I faked the whole thing just so I could buy another BS2.
 
I am puzzled as to why fixing the pins made it work.  The pins only broke when I removed the stamp, after it stopped working to begin with.
 
Incidentally, before we went on vacation last Christmas, she did her usual weird thing where she hides all of the computers, and last weekend, in the throes of her pregnancy-induced housecleaning, she found a laptop that had been missing since then.  So now I have an extra BS2 and an extra laptop -- two relatively expensive parts that I would have had to recquisition for the LUNA model.  I thought that was funny and I wanted to share it.

Hi Scott,

I was able to solder some pins back on your BS2. I loaded a test program and
it appears to be working!

You will need to re-load your previous program for the robot to do it's
thing.
