Fix!
My Media-box (TVIX) died. Googled on it, seem to be common with PSU failures due to overheat. Opened up the box, found one transistor and one diode melt. Then I googled on Tranistor and diode numer, butchered an old PC power supply and found what I tought was good enough transistor/diode combo (transistor was right polarity, but a bit bigger). Swapped in them...and lo and behold, box booted up!
Other thing that was worth fixing is my old Bang & Olufsen stereo full-tube reciever from 1962. Couple of new tubes, few high voltage capacitors and light bulbs and it works as a charm. Rocks hard with it's 2 x 3W output
On the other hand, there were things that weren't worth fixing. My Audi S4 is one of them. I tought it was a good deal at the time...ended up replacing radiator, intercooler plumbing, whole ignition, complete front suspension (including brakes), plethora of bushings, god knows how many engine sensors, rear differential, ignition lock, stereo, cam belt, wheel arch...(i would like to know how to make font smaller and smaller
)
In these times, more and more is worth fixing! Penny here and penny there...it soon adds up.
