I haven't even started looking yet so I don't know the pricing at all. I'm think around $200-250 is my limit unless a really spectacular monitor presents itself or something. --- End quote --- I have no idea on American pricing but compared to what we would pay seems a tad high. Regarding the actual TV though I always get LG, Never had a single problem with any of the 3 I have and the one is around 15-20 years old. |

Had an issue with my Crazy Kong board - the issue was me! I bought a High Score Saves/Freeplay Kit, but it required me to remove the z80. No problem, mine was soldered it, but I can do it! I’ve removed lots of chips. I was careful with using my Hakko to not burn or lift any traces on the bottom. Got it desoldered, looked clean from the bottom, so I gently popped up the chip.... ... and lifted some traces on the top. Not to worry, not my first rodeo. I have super thin Kynar wire and fixed everything. Then I soldered in the socket, plugged in the kit... Scrambled boot. Fsck. I tried other z80s. Same thing. I used my logic probe. It was getting a signal and working, so it had to be trace related. I held it up to my worklight and looked very carefully... A pin on the socket never made it in the hole! I popped out that pin and soldered in a new one. Plugged it in and.... Boom! We good! HSS kit is in and working! Nothing is more satisfying than fixing a dead PCB (especially when you killed it!). |
