[TenTec] Need Corsair Part

[Phil Chambley Sr.]

Hi Don...

I should have bought a lottery ticket that day.  A gentleman in AL had a brand new display chip (only one) and is sending it to me.  

Some of these hard-to-find chips, like the ones on the logic board  of the Omni VI, can still be found.  For instance, the DSP 2105 chip is stocked and still used by an outfit that repairs old pinball machines.  

I don't think these chips fail more often, we just hear about them during the search.

      Hi Phil,
      Can you suggest a reason why I hear so frequently that the display on a Corsair has gone bad? How did you manage to find the part that is no longer made?
      Thanks,
