Hi!
I'm Darkwinter, from Brazil, Apple specialized repair technician.
I'm always looking for schematics or boardview files for macbooks since I saddly cant afford to pay the price for each one because dollar is about 4x my actual currency.

Nice to meet you guys and I hope to help as much as I can!

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello everyone!

I am a computer (hardware) engineer by education, software engineer by trade, and life-long electronics hacker by...well life.

I just bought parts to build my own full custom PC (I have built before but with a OEM mobo + cpu). Core i7 8086-K

I am trying to get into phone/laptop repair on the circuitry level. I will be leaving my day job in the next couple weeks, hoping to start my own Consulting company + Repair company.

Wish me luck! Looking forward to being apart of this community, contributing and receiving knowledge.

Hi, I read the intros of couple of members here. My first computer was also Sinclair (Tashkent addition with fixes), which I assembled (soldered) from scratch and built my own keyboard and PC all in one box (metal case from ES keyboard). I did my own (all in the row) keyboard with huge mechanical/magnetic keys from original ES. But that was long time ago.
I am a software engineer of 20 years.
Now I have a house to take care of and I hate when things break on me.
I am the last one to replace broken appliance unless I cannot fix it. So I still have 20 and 30 year old refrigerators and cloth washer in which I fixed spin/door lock circuit, replaced the bearings for the drum.
So things break….now I am fighting with 40 in LCD that has PS blown by the surge from the thunderstorm. Hope to find some answers as to how to fix the TV.
