Techies
Apropos the earlier exchange, take a look at this link: http://
news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/6946042.stm
Maybe all will be well with the XBox in 2011?
How about this curious problem: I have a client suffering from an
apparent refusal of the tin and lead to meld together in his process
but on on 1 to 10 individual joints per assembly. It looks like a
cold joint (stay off this Dewey!) yet the joint is hard but separated
metals - anyone got any clues? Pretty much every conceivable test has
been run without a solution.
What could prevent tin and lead melding - Mr Hillman or Mr Pauls?
Kindest regards
Graham Naisbitt
