Excellent suggestion. We should add something about that to the sticky.

OBTW, the tech sticky is going to be kind of rough looking for a while. I'm just trying to get all the links copyed to it at first and will edit it to bullet form as I get time. The little white notesheet icon next to your posts means it's been added to the sticky. Once it looks all pretty with titles, I think it should be arranged in lists by component category. If anyone has preferences or suggestions, it's your forum so speak up:
