Don, I totally agree with you on this, but at the same time I still have
that tinkerer/hobbyist (and thrifty/New Yankee) mentality and would want to
devise a way to defeat it or at least just figure out how it works. And also
to save money. But, this is a case in point of how many things toady do not
lend themselves to being taken apart, examined, modified, and/or repurposed.
Its kind of a shame, since there isn't that motivation as much (at least
among the kids) to learn how things work and use broken devices for spare
parts. When I was a young teen and didn't have much money, I would harvest
circuit boards from discarded devices for parts to use for my own projects.
Anymore, though, most circuit boards contain many devices or even systems
etched on a chip, rather than discrete components. In many cases now it just
doesn't make sense to not buy a new, readymade product.
