@ -42,7 +42,7 @@ Putting the Ploopy Trackball into bootloader mode is very easy.
1. Unplug it from your computer.
2. Open it by removing the screw in the base and removing the top.
3. Pop the PCB out of the base.
3. Pop the PCB out of the base. *(Note: once you've done this a few times, you can reflash the board without popping the PCB out, since the holes are obviously also exposed on the back of the PCB.)*
4. Look for a pair of vias (gold-plated holes) that have the words `BOOTLOADER` above them. If you're looking at the board "right side up", then you should see the words in the top-right corner, and the two holes will be right below the words.
5. Get a paper clip (non-insulated, i.e. no plastic shit covering it) or a pair of tweezers, or some wire. Whatever you've got on hand that's metal.
6. Stick the paper clip or tweezers into the holes. You're trying to form an electrical connection between the two holes.
