I've had to change out at least one tape drive, and at least one CD-ROM drive, and I've had to pull and re-seat a few cards, from time to time, but no, we've never had anything we couldn't fix ourselves. We have, however, retired two terminals. Our 3180 somehow developed an overload bad enough to instantly blow replacement fuses (to be fair, though, I once owned a CGA monitor so badly shorted out, the fuses EXPLODED!) And our 3487HC eventually went "pop" and gave up the ghost (we now have a 3488 or 3489 [I can't recall which it is], a 3477FA, and a twinax Yestation). -- JHHL
