(It's habit. I used to design and build my own hardware too (in the form of
microprocessor and graphics boards). Since these didn't come with software,
that had to be created as well, from scratch (literally, at one time, 
starting from binary machine code). That included languages, editors, 
libraries, compilers, and as well as everything associated with graphic 
displays.

I don't do hardware any more, but it gives me a different perspective on
things, such as being able to tell when things are far bigger and more
complex than necessary.)
