Why are you soldering instead of wire-wrapping?Good question. I don't think I have a good answer for it. As a matter of fact, I've never used wire-wrapping but I got to consider it and when I did, I found that wirewrap boards and IC sockets are really, really expensive...
For the other part, I'm very familiar with soldering components and wires on prototyping boards; honestly, to solder is something that I actually enjoy. The only bad thing about soldering is the enormous amount of time it takes to build a single circuit board.
Again, chosing soldering over wire-wrapping is not very convincing indeed but, personally, I don't feel particularly uncomfortable with that.
