hehe, didn't yours come back because they were fixed or because the owner  
didn't want to risk a outrageous repair bill again ;-) ?

Those cheapo sets are so economized, there's just no money for stuff like  
zero-ohms. There are wire bridges however. There isn't much in there to go  
wrong.

The bloddy B on my keyboard is acting up today, requiring quite insane  
pressure to function. As if i wouldn't have enough work already that needs  
fixing too.....
