It was something like: "Er...Yeah I think so" after a long pause!
Scary thing is, this was 2nd year HNC students. Also throughout my ONC & HNC there was very little emphasis on fault finding.
You never stop enjoying the feeling of satisfaction you get when you find & fix a fault on any piece of equipment be it 2 years old or 20. Like many EBME engineers, I joined the TV trade when I left school & still enjoy a dabble now and then when the old Sony monitors drift in from our more aged stack systems!
I do also feel that things may eventually go full circle & we will be encouraged to keep equipment alive the 'old fashioned way' in a bid to reduce waste in the future (I hope so anyway!).
