     Think you could do a full re-furb on my $1200 (1990 dollars) LaserDisc   
   player?   It needs all new EL caps all the way through.  And that will   
   likely solve the issue it was starting to have way back when it quit. The   
   other three players I have work fine.  Figures the crazy expensive one   
   would be the one that dries up.
