Clearly if I want to start swapping parts I can just go by a nifty new
motherboard, which will force me to buy a nifty new processor and nifty
new memory -- I want to avoid that if I can, particularly if that'll
just lead me to finding out that the power supply is intermitte

many deep discharge/charge cycles.
There is considerable collected wisdom on this subject in the amateur
radio literature, from folks building emergency-power stations suitable
for the aftermath of fire, flood, and earthquake. They all say "don't

You are extracting individual characters out of rawInput by getting a
pointer to a character array, then getting characters 'the C way'.

I would take that under advisement -- sometimes you _do_ want to use a
class's accessor functions from within the class, particularly when its
large and comple
