Oh, not this _again_....

I agree with you. Very few machines were unaltered between leaving the 
factory and getting to you. There is no good reason why they can't be 
altered some more...

My views are simple. I will do modifications if they make the machine 
more useful. Obviously improving cooling airflow comes into this 
category. I will not substantially change the design (and this includes 
replacing linear PSUs with SMPSUs, for example), I won't make unnecessary 
mods. And I'll keep documentation of what I've done.
