I have a "Red is Alive" HVT ! Don't know how long it will stay that
way.... but I guess if it survived this long, it may hang on
indefinately since it gets very little use (especially since I have
to fix the Mathbox on the mainboard).
I also have two other HV boards. At least one I am 99.9% sure of
has a dead Red HVT, and the other I have not tried to repair yet, but
I'm pretty sure that the Red HVT on that one is likely dead as well.
I've read a few times on this list of list members with working Red HVTs
but I don't the numbers are large.
Considering the costs involved when a HVT is bad.... I would work to
determine if the Red HVTs you have are dead before truly considering
them to be so.... (although you may blow regs/BUs in the process of
trying to find out (unless you have a ring tester for the HVT)).
