The sticky console buttons is a fairly common problem. I've replaced several
of those buttons in the past. The replacement buttons usually cost from $1
to $2 a piece.

Hehehe hadn't considered that. Silly me. Setting it up was annoying
enough that I'd kind of blanked out the option of cracking open the
case again. I did have the foresight to socket the rom.
Oh, btw, the switches on my console are kind of sticky; they don't
open and close very cleanly. Sometimes pushing down gets multiple
jumps on the cursor in the DevOS screen. It takes a couple of HARD
pushes to get the power to come on at all. Is this a common problem?
Is there an easy remedy?
