FWIW:

The laser in my Duo R was stolen from a US Duo I sold to someone else (maybe Nat?). So, its old.


So the question becomes, where did the laser in the Duo I bought from you come from? Was it new or did you just swap it with the one from the Duo R? I haven't had any problems with it, just curious.

hmm..  I went with high quality discs, and I cant seem to get anything to work properly at the slowest burn rate, which is 10x for me.  Few years ago, I was able to burn at 1x and 2x and those discs work fine.  I dunno.  I am buying what I can as I find the higher priced games, and replacing all CDr games I burned.  But, still have some I play.  Like Beyond Shadowgate, my burn works perfectly.  But Dungeon Explorer II wants to be a little bitch.  lol.  Luckily I just got a good price on ebay for that one.  So, I am working towards my goal....Then its on to world domination.

Yeah, I just switched them. The only problem with the one I sent you was that it skipped really easy, like, if you just tapped the machine. Other than that it was fine. I only switched them because before I even decided to ditch the US system I had already decided to make the Duo R my main machine so I just put the slightly better laser in the unit I would be using the most.

Cool. It's been my main gaming machine since I bought it from you (2007?) and still going strong. I had to do the capacitors at one point, but the laser has held up well. I've never had any skipping issues at all, but then again, I don't ever touch the console itself while playing.
