But I wrote down the serial numbers for my boards before sending them in and verified that I got the same boards back (the SN barcode stickers were intact). And the connector wasn't fixed, at least not in the long-term - the problem came back after just over six months the first time and under five months the second time. Plus the fact that it's visibly coming apart under close inspection. I'd gladly have paid them for a replacement CPU board, but they told me the problem was the logic board the first time and the CPU the second - despite the fact that the symptoms have been identical all three times (search way back in the DuoList archives if you're curious). I'm not especially accusing them of anything, but I can't see sending them my hardware again or paying them any more dough. Anyway, I'll repeat my plea - does anyone have a spare original CPU board from an upgraded 2400 that they can loan or sell me to test in place of mine? An intermediate upgrade board for sale (240MHz for instance) would also be worth a try; I could pay for it in advance on the condition that it be returnable if it doesn't fix my 2400. ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net!
