I see your point Paul. "Internet legends" can be really destructive.
No one here wants that (and if they do we'll put the beat-down on em
:). I have a couple EE degrees, so I'll speculate for the last time on
this topic: MOTM has a reputation for using the highest quality parts
and producing the highest quality product. You've been criticized in
the past for going too far in this regard - I think you have a long way
to go in the other direction before anyone could seriously suggest that
MOTM quality is not up to snuff. I mean what is the competition doing?
You can bet they are all going to SMT too, if that is the way the
larger electronics industry is going/has gone. So if people don't want
MOTM because it uses SMT, they 'll have nowhere else to go. This is of
course setting aside the whole question of whether SMT is a "bad thing"
in the first place - which no one here has suggested, to my knowledge.

Oh that's silly - but if you put green paint on the edge of your CDs
they sound ∗waaayyyy∗ better! Dude! Try it - you'll see!
