It's bittersweet to me that there isn't more Calvin and Hobbes. I understand the "quit while you're ahead" mindset, but I read some fan-made webcomic where Calvin and Susie were now adult parents, and it felt great to read some C&H again in some shape or form.
Inexpensive isn't a fixed value. A hobbyist can be someone able to splurge thousands on tech because they find it fun, but they may as well just be someone who only has 50€ at the end of the month and wants to tinker with a microcomputer they read about online.
