doesn't look like that's the case.<br>

<br>
</div> that's bad. thanks for the heads-up. something to watch out for in<br>
QC (for production). i just bridged a couple of those pins, whoops<br>
they're absolute sods to clean out.<br>

Just checked my other one, no bridge, but for some reason the area near the end (68pin side), looked kinda "nasty", almost like whoever/whatever was soldering was worried about interference with the resistors or some such in that area. </div>
