Seeing Woz hold solder in his teeth while working really made my day. I still recall the form I had to sign in an early Electrical Engineering class that made me promise not to do exactly that. :)

- sliverstorm 12y agoIf he's enough of an old-timer, it's probably still lead solder. I hear it was pretty hard to let go of, as lead solder is superior in virtually every way except toxicity.
- kazinator 12y agoLeaded solder is still easily available over the counter in electronic shops, and is the stuff of choice for manual construction, repair and rework by everyone who has half a clue. There are numerous exemptions in RoHS on the requirement for lead-free. This is because everyone knows that lead-free solder is unreliable junk, and the risk is not acceptable in some applications.
