Spice won't do the right analysis if you don't know what you are doing.

Wasn't there just a big debate between John and Jim about how John doesn't
need a simulator? :-)


IIRC the big difference is that John can breadboard, I can't.

Oh breadboarding isn't so hard! You can pick up the skill in no time.

Hardest part for me is re-inserting a resistor that has its leads bent
from being inserted and removed from the breadboard too much.

I used to breadboard chip designs. See...

for about ONE-THIRD of the PCB set-up I used back then.

Now-a-days the device count and operating speeds preclude such
convenience, so I must simulate only.
