heh, I wouldn't be too depressed. if you have a working knowledge of
such items, even when they come along rarely,
it'll be much better than if you had no clue (like most young folks
these days). You should try working on old tube radios and
other such similar items from the 40's to the 70's. Hell, I still have
an old 1978 model year reel-to-reel recorder that works.
