Fender Rumble - what's this thingy?
Curious as to what this item is - it seems to be between the PSU and power amp sections of this PCB.It looks like a metal cover, and underneath there's a solid block which screws to the metal casing, so presume it's a heatsink of some sort? I don't intend to remove that top screw - just in case :-)Cheers.

Windows 11 - Thoughts?
Windows 11 has been mentioned in another thread but the posters there (wisely) didn't want to discuss the pros and cons as it would detract from the OP's query. Thus I have created this thread. :) I moved to W11 a couple of nights ago (via forced download rather than waiting for Win Update to offer it). I did an in-situ…
