Now hold on there a daburn minute, son.
Before you go off obliterating that poor ol' circuit board (kinda like you did
to that privy when you was messin' around with the hydrogen and gawd knows
what else), you might consider that the reason them there high temp
interconnects are on there is so that they don;t collapse.  Therefore they
provide a standoff which offers more resiliance to temperature cycles than
eutectic (63/37) collapsed interconnects.  Seen 'em as high temp columns (IBM)
and high temp balls (kinda like yours after that privy accident -he he, grin).
So there  ya go, boy,  Check out papers by IBM as well as articles in Circiuts
Assembly and SMT.  Now git screwing around on the computer and git some work
done.
