They are pretty pointless aswell to be honest. Probably wont even cover the cost of the elctricity they use.

Yeah, I don't plan on using it to mine for profit.  It's mostly nostalgic.  I'd hate to just leave it in a broken state, but it's starting to sound like there is no way.

If they let the magic smoke out you are pretty well hosed.

I did something stupid.  I plugged in 2 of my U2's into (what ended up being) a 5v hub and applied a 12v power supply.
It fried my miners (smoke and all).

Is there any hope in repairing them?  It's mostly for nostalgic purposes.
