We need to establish: 1) do the mods work 2) if so, how do they work Then we can move to step 3, which is: "utilize the knowledge gained during 1 and 2 above to build better stuff" It's great that YOU don't care how things work - but others do need/want to know and you need to respect their motivation just as much as you'd expect them to respect yours. It's not a questio of right or wrong, it's simply different strokes... This has nothing to do with digital per se - it is just as true for analogue. Mains cables anyone?
