troubleshooting works in industry these days. I know there are still a

are very small and shrinking fast.
Ta for that :) I didn't explain at the time that of course we module swap on
site then repair back in the workshop if such a repair is possible, if not
it's out to the breakers and resellers. Since we deal with a lot of older
DEC stuff we *have* to repair boards and we enjoy doing it; some of the
prices resellers want for replacement parts are sometimes laughable.
I agree that component level repairing on site isn't viable and hasn't been
for years.
