   * It's important to know that even if you fix an error, other errors or issues may remain underneath, and a complete repair may sometimes be less economical than replacement. It might also take more time than the initial error might indicate.
     * For example, in the copier job below, even though the boot disk error was fixed, the formatter board required replacement to get a basic function like printing over the network to work. If this was a less expensive copier, the amount of time to troubleshoot and the cost of replacement parts may not have been worth simply replacing the copier outright.

 The idea is to mount a video conferencing camera under the TV, connect it with an expansion mic so participants can clearly hear the folks seated at the table, and make it easier to connect the laptop used for conferencing from the table.
