The repair costs were just insane!!! $10,000 or more for a computer PCB. One machine they bought NEW was very expensive, not sure exactly how much... anyway, the deal is they MUST provide spare parts for no less than 10 years over here. The PC part stooped working after say 5 years and they were told its no longer made and you would need to buy a new machine. Then the fighting started, as by law they must provide parts for no less than 10 years on a new machine. While they were fighting to get a new board they had to buy a new machine (from someone else of course) while the old one got repaired.They are getting cheaper but still out of reach for the common handyman/woman.</blockquote>
