Hi WLUG,
My conundrum is whether to work on soldering most likely capacitors into an old 18 inch LCD later this week in a haze of starch and tryptophan.
Is it worth it to re-hab it for use as a basement/workshop PC? Yes, I think it is, particularly if the issue is the PSU.
My ViewSonic 32" died a slow death last year. My eyes could not do without it but the replacement budget was far too steep. A complete PSU electrolytic capacitor replacement did the trick, with no need to relegate this one to a junk pile. All for < $10 USD. /m
