YLOD 60GB launch units are pretty easily fixed if nothing is majorly wrong.
I bought a dead one off Kijiji that came with a controller for $60. FlameOn reflowed it for me after we had a big reball failure (oven too hot). We then tried buying 6 more with our luck progressively worse though lol.

That's to be determined. We have at least two working out of the six. If reflows don't fix the remaining units we have a bunch of dead chips on our hands or botched reflows (which will require reballing and I don't trust myself to not screw that up... shaky hands).
