	I have, and last week I found one locally at around 9pm in the 
	evening in a garage on a farm, went to visit at midnight, and
	got my 2 zinged power-supplies fixed by 2am.

	nothing like a friendly hardware-hacker with a parts-supply
	who does these things for a living for the stores in the area
	and who, like me, seems to come alive at night... 

	I asked him and he is willing to do similar services for my
	netfriends that I'd care to refer to him.  Given my experience,
	I know you'll be pleased by the cost, which shipping included can
	run anywhere between $50 and $90, depending on parts needed ...

	make a note of his phone-number (512)345-4339 and tell him that
	you are one of Werner's Usenet friends (just so he knows how you
	found out about him, and so you get the best price - which I
	insisted on as it is business generated at no advertising cost to
	him - an argument I have used on several businesses which I then
	told the net about).  Otherwise, I am only a satisfied customer
	and have no other contact or connection to whatever repair deal
	you might make - and the only people I am willing to help with
	repair arrangements are netfolks who live in the far corners of
	the world and have to deal with special problems such as customs
	and long-distance shipping.  Why?  I've lived in the jungle and
	the island and the oil-camp and wished there had been computer
	networks then to find a "netfriend" willing to help with such
	hassles ...

			Cheers,		---Werner
