RE: [motm] Re: FFB options

2009-02-13 by Adam Schabtach

No ire raised on my part. For me, it has nothing to do with economics. I
genuinely enjoy building modules; for me, it is "THAT fun". Roughly half of
the enjoyment I derive from my modular is in the building (the other half
being in the making music with it). Soldering PC boards and stuff is what I
do on weekends as therapy for spending too much time with computers. Sitting
in front of me right now are three PCBs that I laid out myself and had
fabricated by batchpcb.com. Soldering parts to them (SMT parts, even!) is at
the top of my list for Fun Things To Do This Weekend.
 
But I realize that my interests represent a minority of the market.

I'd go for option(b). 

At the risk of raising the ire of the many soldering fans on this 
forum, I feel compelled to ask how our friends who have chosen option
(a) rationalize the economics of spending quite so many hours to save 
so little $ (per hour)?

I never found it THAT fun!
