Exactly! The only things that would make PTH at home "worth it" would be any
one or combination of the following:
1. The personal "need" to prove "I can DO that!";
2. A lack of a professional PC-house within 50 miles, that will do PTH for
you, essentially "while you wait";
3. A need to make PTH boards for a top-secret national-defence project that
must be completed TONIGHT;
