Hopefully you also take the case apart as well to look inside to get
an idea of how well it's made. It's always handy to take a few
screwdrivers, hex drivers, torx drivers, etc. with you when you go
into a store to look at any electronics equipment that you plan to
purchase. It seems odd to me that no stores remove the screws,
etc. on display items so that customers can, more easily, take a look
inside to see how well the equipment is constructed. Schematics
displayed with all of the items on display would make much sense too,
but I don't recall ever having been in a store that did this.
