Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Hello - As directed, I'm a new member and am posting an introduction here. I am a pure novice when it comes to any type of electronics repair. My background is totally non-scientific. My interest in the forum has to do with my 3 year old samsung 226bw monitor, which started "flickering" when powered up. I was infuriated to learn that it was due to a few bad 85 cent capacitors, which could be replaced with a little know-how and perseverance. I have never soldered anything or really attempted much in the way of electronics...
