I do find this witch-hunt against capacitors to be
curious, given how
few I've found to have failed. I suspect a lot of it comes from
audiophools who think this is the way to fix anything...
Perhaps. But not all of it, certainly. I'm currently four for four
fixing dead flatscreens by re-capping their power supplies; I imagine
others have similar experiences. It's not a huge stretch to imagine
that other power supplies may have similar issues; even if it turns out
to not be the case, there is probably at least a little "can't hurt
anything, right?" running around.
