And if I recall correctly, you can't just repair them as all the parts are in a solid block of epoxy.

  I remember that bit of fun all too well... or I am going senile... Back when these things were new and shiny, I had a power supply go and I was pretty sure it was just a fuse. Easy change.... except for the fact it was, as I quickly learned, a de facto fossil inside a beige-ish (as I dimmly remember) block of solidified goo. I was wondering why it was so hard to get the power supply case off...

    That does explain why the damn thing felt like such a brick.

    The whole thing was prone to overheating IIRC, which shortened its life. Being completely encased in resin probably didn't help the heat dissipation.
