Depending upon the level of possible return, hardware level modifications are not beyond the realm of possibility when traveling to certain areas. I would include the People's Republic of China in the definition of "certain areas". On Thu, Dec 7, 2017 at 8:56 AM, David Stack <dstack () uwsa edu> wrote:
