My ST died today and before I get it fixed, I was wondering if someone
could verify a rumor I have heard.  Is Atari offering a $95 replacement 
for Rev A motherboards?  If so, why?  Is there something inherently wrong
with a Rev A board?

As far as my ST dying goes, I had left it on with NITE (screen saver) 
installed and when I returned to the machine, it was dead:  the power
light was on but I couldn't get it to display to the screen or to boot
(neither cold nor warm boot worked).

PS.  Thanks to all who responded to my jittery monitor problem.  I've got 
a couple more power supplies to move before I can be sure that the monitor
is broken.  Maybe I can check once my machine is repaired.
