  And I am not looking forward to having to repair
our Bravia. According to 
 the service manual, you board-swap the PSU but fix the signal processing 
 PCB at component level. That's a PCB containing BGA-packaged chips, 
 fine-pitch PQFPs, etc. And all you get is a schematic, no waveforms, or 
 anything like that. Hmmm....  
     STOP THE PRESSES!!!
     STOP THE PRESSES!!!
     STOP THE PRESSES!!!
     STOP THE PRESSES!!!
     STOP THE PRESSES!!!

     Tony Duell, you have something (technologicaly) new at home??? :oO  
Actually I don't. It's not mine, it's my father's...

I watch very little television. In a world full of books and manuals to 
read, computers, cameras, clocks, etc to repair, electronic aad 
mechancial things to make, firmware to write, and so on, I find very little 
time to watch the garbage put out by the television companies

...
      I think someone steal the e-mail account of our
friend Tony :oD 
Ah, but notice that I did buy the service manual for it. I can;'t have 
changed that much :-)
