No kidding. Although I too hold the greatest admiration for someone
who has the talent to do that, we must keep in mind that while
our definition for "classic computer" is moveable and extends
back ten years (now to November 1988) the time period for
"repairable by human" probably ends at a specific fixed date,
perhaps dooming some classic computer collectors to a certain
time period, based on what they're willing and able to repair.
