The thing that amazed me about this project, was that the parts kit that they
were selling to build the project was an even bigger rip-off than usual. I 
don't have the magazine in front of me, but I recall that they wanted $59.90
for a blank circuit board!! I am usually not concerned about their kit proces
because you can just take the component list to somewhere more reasonable,
but this is the only source of this board.
