-Internet provides advanced a lot and from the time the idea came into reputation wallpapers are a thing that people constantly longed for. They always love to keep their desktops clean up and beautiful and folks also maintained searching online wallpapers which one can find for free largely. ​[[http://hrwallpapers.com/|HR Wallpaper]] can be defined as the actual portrayal of pictures, photos or images on the desktop of a PC or laptop computerFrom the startit was known as desktop structure and later the particular name wallpapers had been evolvedThis expression was introduced into the spot light by Microsoft WindowsIt was completed to make a clear variation between the house windows decor on the desktop and the whitened background. It was rather difficult to view the items about the desktop. Wallpaper could be the backdrop in your computer screen. You can have various images in various image formats just like jpeg, gif, png and bmp, amongst others+**The discussion thread where you can read the latest info and post questions about sammichSID kits is [[http://www.midibox.org/​forum/index.php/topic,14079.0.html|here]].** 
 +===== sammichSID Low-Down =====
  
 +**sammichSID** was designed to be the "no excuses"​ MIDIbox SID synthesizer kit - i.e. for all those people who want a MIDIbox SID but consider building it with modules too time-consuming,​ too newbie-unfriendly and/or too hard to design and construct a control surface, and where MB-6582 is too expensive, too daunting and/or too hard to source all the parts.
 +
 +**sammichSID** therefore has the following design constraints/​features,​ which support each other:
 +  * cheap
 +  * small
 +  * DIY newbie friendly
 +  * minimal control surface
 +  * single "​walwart"/​AC adapter supply, no C64 PSU brick!
 +  * stereo SID, optimized for 8580/6582A, 6581 optionally supported
 +  * "​sandwich-style"​ stacked PCB design, **no wires!**
 +  * laser-cut 3mm acrylic case by [[http://​www.ponoko.com/​|Ponoko]],​ customization possible
 +  * industry standard 2x20 character LCD with low-power LED backlight, customization possible
 +  * common control surface parts used, customization possible
 +  * **To be available as a complete kit, including PCBs, components, case, hardware and (optionally) two 6582A SIDs!**
 +
 +**MIDIbox SID Synthesizer V2 features**
 +
 +  * One Core module and one stereo SID module, fully integrated on one PCB with power supply.
 +  * Five "​BankStick"​ slots, so you can store 4 banks of 128 patches, plus 128 "​Ensembles"​ (engine and patch configurations)
 +  * Jumpers to configure the power supply, allowing a regulated 12V input to power 6581, or unregulated AC/DC input to power 8580/6582A.
 +  * Minimal control surface with three user-customizable buttons and LED matrix for maximum bling.
 +  * 2x20 character LCD with support for low-power (25mA) or high-power (250mA) LED backlight.
 +  * Potential for future upgrade to MIDIbox SID Synthesizer V3 using add-on board
 +

 +
 +Here are the PCB layouts in PDF format, for troubleshooting purposes. Note the base PCB has ground plane removed, i.e. pins on the ground plane will be shown without any tracks connected to them, but you can tell on the PCB that they are connected to the ground plane.
