No "Nuts & Volts"?

Nope. Never seen that mag on Australian shelves.

For me the pivotal moment was when they published their new amp design
mounted in a particularly cheap & shitty beige mini-tower computer case,
complete with big knobs to make it look supremely naff.

Which was plainly a stupid attempt at recycling. However the circuit design
was OK, and I built one into a standard rack case long before they realised
their error and redesigned it with a normal case. I'll bet I wasn't the only
one either.

I don't think I ever claimed it was effective or even
prevented plagiarism ;-) Probably about as effective as
antismoking labels on cigarettes.

Far less so IMO, and at least the cigarette packet warnings don't affect the
cigarettes themselves, whereas watermarks always affect the actual program.

I think the prime aim is simply to irritate viewers as much as possible, and
the channels are engaged in a battle to see who can do it best.

For irritation it is hard to match the recent format for such shows as
Border Security. About 2 minutes of good stuff, then lots of adverts, then a
recap of at least one minute of the previous two minutes. Arrgh!

I've also noticed those TV programs catering for people with a goldfish
attention span appearing on the ABC as well.
