I wonder how that happened?  Every hardware problem I have diagnosed
and occasionally fixed in the last few years, from motherboards to CRT
monitors to external power supplies (mains voltage converters) has
boiled down to one or more 10μF electrolytics packing up.  How many
faulty capacitors were manufactured and deployed?  By whom?
Intentionally?
