Modifying hardware is nearly impossible: new versions of the hardware have to be produced, and those are expensive. While producing printed circuit boards (PCBs) costs a lot of money, producing integrated circuits is out of reach. A few devices come with schematics for the PCB, but that's usually as far as it gets. |
