News and Reviews for Monday January 27th 2014

unnamed

I’m proud of myself, I fixed my broken monitor. I have a 23” Hannspree that I liked a lot and it started acting up and I did some research and found it could be bad capacitors. I opened it up and found two bulging and leaking ones, I replaced them this Saturday and it’s been working perfectly since. It’s so nice to have my monitor back. I was a bit nervous doing the repair as it’s been a long time since I did any soldering on a circuit board, but everything seems fine. Anyway, it’s time for the news so you go ahead and read that..
