Direct Install?
« on: March 29, 2011, 09:51:00 PM »
If you can solder, its not a bad idea, but if the chip were to die its a lot easier to remove one from a pinheader than it is to desolder the whole chip.  If you can solder, you can easily clean out the LPC and put in a pinheader.

I agree with justtaint. I've done both and I have to say, the pinheader install is a much better option. And easier in the long run.
