thanks for the replies
I guess what I am looking for is can I use any of the new parts out to fix the RAM problems, or are they design issues? I hope TonyF answers back.
I mean if all of the parts are the same why did the RAMS like the RAM 1000 have so many problems? Is it quality problems with Artes stuff or some design difference or something else?
I agree that buying cheap usually means something, and these things are really cheap!
