The Zybo (Zynq™ Board) is a feature-rich, ready-to-use, entry-level embedded software and digital circuit development platform built around the smallest member of the Xilinx Zynq-7000 family, the Z-7010. The on-board memories, video and audio I/O, dual-role USB, Ethernet and SD slot will have your design up-and-ready with no additional hardware needed. Additionally, six Pmod connectors are available to put any design on an easy growth path.

I took apart the transmitter/ receiver for a logitech wingman cordless controller (ond wireless controller for the PC, still works great :)
Turned out to be a shorted 10uF capacitor (C71) and a burned-out resistor (R100). This shot shows the new parts soldered in.
Early view of the board--just about what I could get done between 415 and 745 a.m. on a Sunday morning. Kids are up, and now Dad's on duty!
The Samsung NP305 laptop had a very poorly designed DC power input jack - just look at all the replacement parts for sale on eBay! After one repair under warranty where they replace the entire motherboard (part #BA92-09477A, costs AU$150 new), the unit owned by my sister failed for a second time, so I came to the rescue and repaired it myself with a AU$2 replacement part.

West Lothian was the centre of much ‘high tech’ industry. By 1980, there were 30 electronics companies in Livingston New Town. This led to the town being known as the capital of Scotland's Silicon Glen and, in turn, attracted a number of Japanese companies to set up operations in Livingston.
This microprocessor (American) was used for managing liquid crystal display (LCD) at Millard Associates.

The microprocessor. They were mostly made by Rockwell. This was an 8-bit 2MHz device. Remember this was 1981 onwards :-)
My three year old Toshiba A105-S4254 laptop computer was still running well but I needed more hard drive space and RAM for multi-tasking. I bought 4GB of 667Mhz RAM and a 320GB hard drive.
