Just another day at the office...

BranDonk Kong:
...I really do fix game consoles (and cell phones) for a living, and luckily Microsoft and Sony did a bad enough job designing their hardware to afford me this job.

Here's a PS3 that came into our shop for the Yellow Light of Death (already disassembled, cleaned, and on the BGA rework station)...


...and here is that same console about 25 minutes later


These are some of the consoles I fixed this week - all being YLOD PS3s or RROD 360s


First time I opened a Verizon iPhone 4 (though I've probably does at least 20 of the AT&T variety - I'd say we get at least 5 iPhone 3G/3GS repairs a day), forgot to take pictures when I was done


And here is a picture I took a couple weeks ago, had to do some catch up when I came back home from Pittsburgh


When you count all of the Wiis, 360s, PS3s, DSes, PSPs, etc, and the various issues, I've probably fixed around 500 consoles for people locally, but there's still no shortage of repairs needing done. There are over 500,000 people in our county, so that's barely scratching the surface really. If you need any work done, hit me up with a PM or mention it in this thread (or not)...
Morari:
Looks like a nice setup. Do you do this privately, or is that wall at an establishment?

I need to take apart and tinker with two of my Dreamcasts. The one is not outputting any audio/video, and the other has loose controller ports that cut in and out. :(
BranDonk Kong:
I used to to it from home, but this is an actual establishment. We just moved our shop two doors over from the original location, so it's kind of messy and I didn't take shots of my whole area, but I will soon.
ShyGuy:
We probably had this discussion before, but how much to fix my Wii's disc drive?
Stogi:
Yo I need a cheap PS3 that will strictly be used for online gaming. I don't need controllers or cables or even a large HDD.
