I live in the U.S. Virgin Islands. It's extremely inconsistent whether tech items can be shipped here. There are a couple reasons for that: 1) UPS considers it international shipping making the cost extraordinary. 2) Generally speaking, it's very common that I'm considered "outside the US" on various websites. 3) Lots of websites don't have USVI to select as a possible destination. Even entering a proper zip code doesn't yield helpful results. In regards to the "object of tinkering delight," you've sort of illustrated one of my points in my post: it's not a delight anymore. I've got things to do and projects I want to work on. I don't get delight from digging into drivers or code or projects anymore.
