I know this is a worn out question but I've done alot of research and seem to get alot of conflicting information.
My 240 has become a money pit. The previous owner beat it up pretty badly.
I will definitely replace it with another Brick. My concerns are as follows:
1) I'm a student on a very limited budget regarding costly repairs.
2) I can do moderate work myself, but again parts cost is still a concern.
3) I'm looking for anything reliable in the $4000 - $7000 range.
4) I live in Arizona US (very HOT) and A/C and cooling are concerns.
5) Flash and glammor are at the bottom of my list, reliability is at the top.
Not sure what else I could write. I just need some experienced opinions. I will also be happy to research any links you could provide. I've already used the common ones, BrickBoard, Swedish Bricks, etc.
