True. Although he did have a point. I am test each unit, and am actually finding about 10% of them do not work on the first try. I cannot say for certain if this is because of Father Time or the lack of QA at C= though. The faults I have found range from the most common being the chips coming unseated, to oxidation on the disk drive head. Luckily most of them start up on the first power on and work fine.
