Wow, Ed, I'm sorry to hear that.

Hopefully, my contact info for Cliff will help someone else out.

As you found, he's very honest and competent.

    Cliff is the person  I sent it to for repair and he said he is not able
to replace the processor.  He is a very honest person, he don't want
anything for his work on the rig and said he wants to pay for the shipping
which I will reimburse him though.  Hard to beat that kind of service.  the
place is Avvid.com.
