I highly recommend more people should salvage hardware, (instead of trashing their game consoles or things whole whole) I may not know how to repair electronics vary well but I do know. That their are some people, that do in online or in remote locations. (Example) Sometimes an internal power supply can go bad. but you know that the laser, is still good. why not sell or give the laser? and everything else inside the game console. To a electronic hardware technician. Or a hardware hacker? If it goes to the junkyard, chances are all of it will (eventually). be rusted through and destroyed. So what are your thoughts on this?
Why not sell or give away functional electronic gut? or that stuff inside old broken electronics? IF it's still salvageable
