A new playstation? - Good or bad?

[Arthur Dent]

anybody know where i can get it looked at and repaired?

The owner's manual or the website have an 800 number for tech support. Nevere had to use it myself though, so I don't know what they're policies are.

I know with Epson printers, they mail you a pre-paid shipping label and send UPS to your house to pick it up, then ship it back to you when it's fixed. All free of charge during the warranty period.
