Hey me boy. I don't think the problem can be solved as I rather suspect the units actually still being sent out are combinations of several. Last I knew, there were NO parts available for the PTR1's. I know for sure the disc drives WERE NOT. I'm not sure if the Mother Boards were or not. Plextalk is, by Law, supposed to maintain parts for at least 5 years, as I understand U.S. law. May be wrong, won't be the first time. Good luck and if you find out anything earth-shattering, let me know.
