Only after your BS. And hell, I wasn't arrogant. Your info was incorrect plain and simple. I'd rather people new that there is a much more affordable to do this.

Direct fits are nice if you want to spend money that way, but don't tell me or anyone else universals are junk/cheap when it's not so.

You got screwed IMO. Don't get cheesed at me because of it

jbrew can be kind of arrogant but you have to rub off the dirt to get the diamond (of information, that is)

My little brother dropped off an older (2006) Dell Plasma last week (DOA), - from where he works; -42" I believe. Yea, they gave it him , he gave it to me to fix lol. Damn thing got pretty hot inside, - blew two buffer boards and a handful of capacitors. I'm just about done with it, r&r'ed the boards, modifying w/heat sinks and a couple old comp e-fans to cool things down a bit, maybe it'll last a few more years lol.

No troubles Tumba, just farten around.

What r u doin, - hows the back ? Any relief there ?

I've just had to slow down even more than ever. A little job like this cat is a major project for me these days. I still go to work every day but just supervise and pay the bills that sort of thing.

How about you did everything work out like it needed to?

Dang, you can work ? That's great! Wish I could.

Nothing yet, REAL close tho. Attorney says 6 weeks max. Everything will be retroactive. That's good, - I've got some monster bills to pay now

It will be worth it tho.

I'm not sure if you can call it work, but I'm there, and paying others to do my job
I can't draw enough from disability to even make it worth filing. Still hoping for a fix when I find the right Doctor though.
When you get that back pay just throw me a bone. I've still got the two kids in college and the economy is sucking hind tit right now. But I'm going to make it
