[sdiy] Breadboards

Personally, I love breadboards.  I've kept working circuits on them for
years, and used them just as if they were built modules.  For the longest
time, the main portion of my synth was breadboards.  I have *never* had a
circuit fail because of the breadboard.  I have *never* had a circuit that
worked on BB not work once transferred to a finished product.

When I was building the DimC in partnership with Jeff Pontius, I placed the
breadboard flotilla it occupied (one large breadboard and two satellite
breadboards interconnected with wire) into a cardboard box, drove 190 miles
to Manhattan, KS, drug it down to his basement, hooked it up to a Blacet
power supply, and drove his Prophet 5 through it into his system.  It
sounded marvelous, especially in stereo.

I'm a bit perplexed about the whole issue here.....
