Chip installation pointers

ModDoc

I have installed many mod chips since I started back in the Xecuter 2.2 days. Everything from version 1.0 xboxes to 1.6. I've never had any real problems before but though I'd post this for any new, or even experienced modders.
Last night I was installing a 2.6 on a 1.3 board. Easy install. Soldering Iron was nice and hot, flying through the pin install. Nothing new here.. but this is where I pass my knowledge on to every one else.

Don't put your thumb on the hot end of the soldering iron.

It removes your finger-prints.
