Hmmm...  Maybe you could build some circuits when nobody is looking... :)

Speaking seriously, many of us would love to have these circuits. But how
the heck will we find out what is inside the chips? Anyone?

PS: they don't need to be exact clones, but circuits that are difficult (or
impossible) to duplicate with conventional IC's, and too complex when built
with discretes. Good for beginners, and even the more experienced DIYers
would like to have some at hand. Like a kit, but more fun, IMO.
