Sigh--one of the many facets of aging. Even with a good strong loupe,
they're just too small to handle easily. It's very frustrating. I can
handle a PLCC (stick it in a socket), but SMT caps and resistors and SOIC
are just too small for me to work with. Heck, I need the loupe just to
read data sheets. :(
