Glad to see that I am not the only one using perf board around here. It 
seems a bit lo-fi to some people, but if keep it neat and clean you can get 
nice results.

The only complaint I have is that sometime it can be a pain to change a part 
when repairing. I started using IC sockets and that definitely helps. Any 
other tips???

Additionally there is an endless source of wire available in almost any 
trash can in America (telephone cables, printers cables, ethernet cables). 
You have to like that!
