- Work better how? Do they just fail less often? I can't remember which
- one mine is, but as it heats up the video gets fuzzy. Spray some circuit
- cooler (the environmentally friendly stuff, of course) on it, and it
- clears up. Anyway, I was hoping that Paxtron would carry it, but they
- don't show it in their ad, so I'll have to call them. Otherwise, I don't
- have a clue where to get one. Must be a rare chip.
