RIP Sean Connery
One of my favorite actors. He was 90 years old. Loved him in Goldfinger, The Untouchables, The Hunt For Red October, Indiana Jones and First Knight to name a few.

Re: RIP Sean Connery
Farewell Sean. Many will remember you for your role as James Bond. I on the other hand will remember you – above all – for your role as a rogue Soviet naval captain, Marko Ramius, who wishes to defect to the United States in a new Typhoon-class nuclear missile submarine.
“Its time Captain.”
In honour and memory – the opening scene from “The Hunt for Red October”.

Re: RIP Sean Connery
Believe he was the best Bond, at 90 I’d say he lived a great life, his work lives on.

I upgraded the power supply on my Gigafoil v4 to a Weiss PSU 102. It’s very nice step up. But with the new model, you’re looking at $2000 before even investing in a SOTA linear power supply.
