What is it that really makes Audrey a paperweight?
Can't the bios be rewritten?
We can already flash an image, so what can't we do to bring back all these Audreys holding down a stack of paper?

Just wondering outloud! Don't flame me please.

One common problem seems to be solder joints around the high voltage subassembly for the back light.

My Audrey has a folded up bit of matchbook indside the case to "correct" this.

I'm gonna have a look inside this Audrey, maybe an open connection at the power jack is the problem causing the "paperwieght blues"...
