[BC] 10 meg resistor...

[Jerry Mathis]

At one time I had some, I believe they were part of a Radio Shack multi-pack 
of resistors. Something like 100 resistors for $3.99 or some such. Boy how I 
miss that sort of thing. They had both 1/2 watt and 1/4 watt variety packs. 
You could replenish your resistor supply for less than $10.

Of course, nowadays who needs resistors?  :(   With the new SMD, you can't 
repair it anyways. In fact, you can't even troubleshoot it, because they 
don't give you the PC board layout. A schematic is useless with SMD's unless 
you have the board layout.
