In short, one of my friends at work had their 20GB model ps3 YLOD on them. They'd since bought a new slim, but still has the 'husk' of the old one laying there.
He's offering to sell it to me for $20, which gave me the idea to see what I could do to rescue it from this situation. I know a proper reflow would require a heat gun, but wouldn't know where to buy one, exactly.
So, reflowers, where do you go for yours? I'm half tempted to go for it, and if I can bring it back from the dead, it would give me either a nice experimental PS3 to mess with and stuff.
And at least, a backup if ever my CECHA01 went out.
The more info I can to make an informed decision, the better.
