          Hi folks,

          I live in South Carolina (USA) where I keep busy as a land surveyor.

          My first computer was an IBM clone with an 80286 chip and a math co-processor. It had a 20mb hard drive and a 5 1/2" floppy. It ran on DOS and I used IBMDOS, DRDOS (Digital Research) and of course MSDOS.
          It came with one mb of ram which was mostly taken up by the operating system and had another whole mb of ram on a separate chip. My application was Autocad and I dabbled in writing Autolisp to make some nifty surveying routines for surveying tasks.

          My hobby is diy audio. I like to build vacuum tube amplifiers and solid state (class A, class AB and class D). Replacing power supply caps on inexpensive Asian class D amplifiers brought me to this forum.

            Hi everyone, My name is Henry, I am from South Africa, now staying in Brandon, Manitoba Canada. I like to try to do some small component level repair stuff, and would enjoy all the good info from the guys that know a lot more.

            I started with Microsoft back in the old days with DOS 3.0, lost my appetite for Microsoft along the way, and is now a vivid Apple fan.

            Thank you very much for accepting me on this forum. I will adhere to all forum rules, and will try to be of some assistance if possible.

            Thank you once again

                Hi, South African dude. Struggling with some failing MacBook Pros, so went searching for specific board files and stumbled on here.

                      Hi everyone I'm just starting out so apologies if some of my posts seem a little dumb. I've been interested in component repair for years but have finally decided to get involved and so far things seem to be going well.

                            Hello to all,
                            My Name is Constantin, I‘m 28 years old and I‘m from south Germany.
                            In the last months I started to repair laptops.
                            Since it is also necessary to repair some of them on component level I decided to register here to learn more.
                            King Regards
                            Constantin

                              Hello. I was referred to this Forum by Shop Jimmy.com. I hope I can find help with a Vizio TV that I'm not ready to throw out just yet. Thanks!

                                Found this forum while searching for solutions to an issue with a Sharp TV. I've always been tinkering with various things, and not wanting to "throw out" this one year old TV figured maybe we can find a fix. I will be searching the site extensively...

                                  Our repair shop is slowly adding new services for board-level repairs, and this site looks like a great resource for our needs, in order to quickly and effectively resolve complex issues. We've long swapped parts, but now we're seeing that quite a bit of business escapes us by declining to assist with component failures. We appreciate all of the help provided by the repair community, and hope to contribute as we learn! Thank you for your generosity!

                                    Hello everyone. Feels nice to find an online community where all kinds of technical jargon is welcomed! I'm self taught electronics repair man and I am here to share what I know and to learn everything else I don't know.

                                          Hello I'm looking forward to using this forum as a technical resource for my home projects. I'm a EE, but I only get to work at hardware at home as my job is paper oriented, although technical. My interests include PC's arduinos, Raspberry Pi, robotics, 3d printing (have a Tevo Tarantuala), etc.
