Gosh.

I think you\'d better hire a photographer instead :-D

My original cell phone pics are OK. The ones I posted here were
captured from the\"improved\" manual. It looks like Word throws away
resolution when you down-size a pic. That makes sense, avoiding
gigantic Word file sizes.

The pics are small and look OK on a printed page.

One of our office ladies has a side business as a professional
photographer, and she will take some better shots. But no AI this
time.

The non ai versions you posted are not perfect. The first one is fuzzy
or unfocused. The second one has shine.


The pics are small and look OK on a printed page.

One of our office ladies has a side business as a professional
photographer, and she will take some better shots. But no AI this

Good :)

Two small pics on one page look OK. And we were planning to have our
pro photographer shoot better pics before we go public on my manual.

My point was about what AI does to electronic packaging.

Where can I buy a ribbon cable with a red stripe on both sides?

How many rackmount boxes have power cables on the side?

Makes the data flow twice as fast :)

But the serial data gets confused and neurotic.

ChatGPT can create LTspice asc files. Sometimes it\'s correct, other
times buggy. As of yet, it does not know how to draw the lines in a
meaningful way
