Exactly my point....
We break into two groups of thought here... Halt at this point, and lay all plans on that halting (and, if ALL the others don't agree--be bypassed anyway)... Or, stay with the pack, realizing if that day ever comes (technology ceases to innovate/obsolete)--we will regret it... Progress, obsolete equip., is the most desirable thing I can imagine! It is a given, not all will agree... Indeed, at 52 years of age, my place in the "scope of the world" is becomming smaller--it only gets worse from now on--I am not ready to quit and attempt to force others to that "quitting" with me... When the "Dick Tracy Wrist Radio" is finally designed and implemented--perhaps there will be a "death of homebrewers" (I myself am NOT much of a 'watchbuilder')--but until then we can have fun!
