OFFICIAL RESPONSE FROM AGILENT: <br /> <br />"We have determined that a short on our LAN/VGA module is what caused the EEVblog unit to stop working. The short caused a resister on the acquisition board to fail, bringing down our 3.3V supply path and causing the unit to no longer boot. After further investigation, it was determined that a small run of early production LAN/VGA modules were susceptible to this short. Although the issue is relegated to this small initial run of LAN/VGA modules, we are replacing all LAN/VGA modules in customer hands and have implemented additional testing procedures on our LAN/VGA manufacturing line to eliminate this issue from happening again." <br /> <br />What does $12000 magic smoke smell like? <br />Murphy ensures that Dave always gets the outliers on the production bell curve for review!
