FBGA Device (Messiah/Clone) Works Fine

[charlie_ps2]

I thought the Forum should know that the Messiah/Clone inauspiciously known as the "FBGA Device" has just had its first successful customer install on a v4 PAL PS2.

It's always an act of faith when you get your batch of chips in and send them out to Australia and Singapore expecting them to work; confirmation is a good thing.

Why is it called the "FBGA Device"? God knows - my supplier didn't say, but I put on the delivery note and terms of trade the description given by my wholesaler for traceability.

Isn't "FBGA Device" a great name? Doesn't it beat Bootmaster (now defunct I believe), Gameslayer, Phoenix, Elvis? Nah.

So that's another Messiah/Clone working OK. Let's hope that supply keeps up.
