Might we all act together to produce a series of soggy "biscuits" that could

OK......what planet have you been on for the last 40 years? - check
out a thing called the "integrated circuit" or "IC" for short.
These are wonderful devices, they come as little plastic blocks with
pins sticking out of them. You connect signal in/out, voltage, a few
extra components to set parameters, and there you have a functioning
electronic circuit....
Please, stop ranting about the decline of AR and start reading a few
contemporary textbooks, or browsing manufacturers sites (they actually
WANT you to use the things, so publish lots of free information and
"application notes"...) or search the internet...
Stop complaining so much about the demise of the "good old days" and
start moving into 2007........
