I wouldn't give this Website to anyone. He is giving out all the easy fixes,
Sony Sound Modules, and things like that. He is even putting together repair
kits and selling them worldwide. I bet he is here on Tech Assist getting
fixes from us and then putting the fixit parts in a bag and selling them.
Man, I wish I had thought of that.

Al;
Just checked it out...I'm surprised so much is free
Actually same thing I supply over the phone...an hour each day...

Good website to pass on..since most of us don't get paid for phone time.
