First board shipped with the new P&S router

 

OK, admittedly an easy board (about half eurocard and 300 pins) but with
seven segment display common stitching (I hate that, you know when you
multiplex the digits... i.e. every time :D)

Done in about 30% time of the estimation. The router works well but it
needs some practice in 'convincing' it to go the way you want. Also
sometimes pushes track slightly off grid, but nothing serious.

The amount of clean up afterwards is comparable with the one needed with
other P&S routers (didn't tried many others however)... only a little
more than with full hand routing.

All in all a good experience (too bad for the opengl display and some
yet unimplemented things)

Keep on the good work
