In the end, Dunkelheit667's one miss - the bi•fury - did him in Smiley
I see, screwed this one up. Thought the five passives on the left were legs on an IC and missed it was actually the ASIC. Embarrassed

Congrats Injust, master of the bi•fury! Smiley

Congrats Injust.

From my own list(before Dunkelheit667's post), I only picked out C, G, J, and N, since I had those laying around. 
D had me thinking for a while.  I have an IceFury, and it was a perfect match, except for the UART.  Since the board also has contacts for the larger UART, I figured the chip on the IceFury just depended on the supply available at the time of manufacture.  Long story short, I mad a good list-- worse Smiley

Dangit, I keep missing these. That's what I get for not working on a Sunday I guess.
That's okay - I'm thinking I'll do another one of these at some point; presumably before next year, and shift the hours about a bit to ones more amiable the east coast Smiley

I suspect it would be somewhat unfair for me to participate ...  however here is a little hint: there are different versions of the same device from different manufacturers Wink
That is correct - and although the contest is closed, I wouldn't mind seeing your guesses Cheesy

Today is proving busier than expected - I'll tally up the scores later today, though from the look of things, there should be a clear winner.

As an aside - I'm thoroughly impressed by the early guesses.  I had contemplated using only the outlines rather than full color shots, but thought that would have been too difficult.. perhaps next year Wink
