One of the two I took out of the sun yesterday was serial number FW96D08704300.
This 1996 module is one of the blue backed ones, so unfortunately, it appears
that the failures are not limited to just the older white backed models of the
MSX-60's.

I feel it is unconscionable  that they do not have the integrity to put out a
recall notice for all the bad modules they have produced. Guess the
"we're-in-it-for-the-buxs" syndrome applies to the manufacturers as well...
sigh.
