    Wooow, there's still people introducing themselves even to this day.

    The zoomers yearn for the forums. Me included although I never really stopped using them, but I've found myself signing up for more and more these past few years.

    I'm an ex-field technician, and to be honest I came here solely for the U1 tool. My version is about 4 years old and doesn't work as I remember it should, I don't even really know *why* I need it, I just know that my legit version errors out.
    I've worked in the repair side of things professionally for about 5ish years now. Before I was mainly repairing stuff under Dell/Lenovo/HP's field repair program through sketchy subcontractors. I never really branched out to freelancing even though I know I should. It's just a little difficult to source available work.

    Anyways, started repairing computers around a decade and a half ago when I was like... 11? I've come a really long way since then, especially as a certified technician.
    Last job involved repairing pre-production Microsoft Azure servers, so that's pretty neat to know that on the daily I was fixing around nice house's worth of computers dollar-wise. I'm mainly based in the silicon valley, although it's been kind of a meme since covid.

    I don't plan on being super active unless I begin working on more broken electronics. Or learn about neat tools.

    Anyways, yeah,

        hi there, greetings from Croatia, moved here 5 years ago from the Netherlands.

        I've been working on game console repairs for decades, just recently started to include interest in repairing PC mainboards, and came here on the back of seeing a video from @LearnElectronicsRepair on YouTube, looking forward to take part in the community.
