    Back when the capacitor plague hit I had to manage locating & replacing over 500 motherboards in the datacenter of my then-employer. Imagine if a hardware glitch like that happened in one of these.

      I had some of these in my video card back in the day. I was extremely proud of myself for managing to order some replacement capacitors and soldering them in myself.

      The most impressive part might be that I ordered the right items. I knew nothing about electronics repair at the time, I just wanted to be able to play World of Warcraft again.

      I think you have the start of a good plotline for a sf comedy.
