I especially liked his bullet list, and #4 in particular (copied below for amusement). He obviously has a bit of experience in that dept.
"4. Please DO NOT try to clone the whole unit: - The manifold tracks will kill you : - ). - MCU encoded, which means although you can clone the board, you can't copy or fix the program in the MCU and the worst thing is, with out the code, the remote won't work, you can't set the time and the whole thing just won't work. " @Yan, if you're reading the thread, my sincere condolences. Your idea of the artistic trace layout was novel. So novel, that it was quickly cloned. I remember from some years back that Frank Bemelman (franktechniek.nl) had his PIC program copied in an early clock design. and was being sold by someone in HK. It's been so long that I don't remember a lot about the details. I suppose that might be another one to add to Brian's douchebag gallery.
