Nobody thought of the 2% band? If the 4th band is not gold or silver, it might be red, meaning 2%. When you get to 1% resistors, it's worse. Number, number, number, multiplier, brown.

4 instance, brown red brown red brown = 12.1k 1%

Wahhh! Almost all of my classmates had smartphones. If not smartphones, yea, laptop. :D But, I'm not belong to those. I'm not fond of those gadgets. :)

Catapult. Catapult. Catapult......:D:D:D
WHAT THE HECK!
I didn't get a phone till I was 14!

By laptop, however, might as well be grafted to my arm ;)

I didn't get a cell phone until I was 49, and didn't really want to then.

My laptop stays in my room driving my HP printer (for PCBs). When I go an an occasional trip it come with.

Like most things, I wanted it immensely, played with it nonstop for about a day, then got bored with it.
Same thing with facebook.
Pretty sure I'm ADD.
A smartphone, however, is something I don't need. Mainly because I will just destroy the touchscreen instantly. I use/overuse/abuse everything I own, so the stuff that lives through it is quality stuff. Then I use it forever. Or it's craftsman, so I can just replace it.
