Mark, given you statement, why aren't home receivers smaller? We

talking about circuit boards, we are talking about electronics you
will have
to handle and move etc. Home receivers should be the size of a
walkman by
now but aren't.
Some are and some are not. The ones that come in big boxes are that
size because people stack them up. The inside of these boxes is mostly
empty space. People are shopping for something they can add to or
replace in an existing stack. So we are really talking furniture here,
not technology.
My 20-year-old receiver is 2-inches high and 10-inches across. My
newer DVD player is about that size too.
I'm sure that if you shop around you will find receivers the size of a
walkman or maybe smaller.
