The printed circuit board was assembled using either wave or reflow soldering techniques that involve pre-heating the entire board to about 150 deg C and then higher for a short period to flow the solder. Sometimes heat sensitive components are added by hand later but for a major producer - Apple - that is too expensive. <http://www.sii-ic.com/en/solder.html> In short, boiling water won't hurt a semiconductor or electronic plastics. -- --> From the U S of A, the only socialist country that refuses to admit it. <-- -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
