Holtsville commuters were advised to use Medford and Ronkonkoma stations ; more use Ronkonkoma due to the fact for, except for a few peak-hour trains terminating in Mineola or HIcksville, boarding at Medford would require transfer to an electric train at Ronkonkoma anyway.

Kramer and Smith were also deeply inspired by Sonny Sharrock, one of the few electric guitarists working in free jazz, and they eventually developed a unique interlocking style that was like little heard before: Kramer's solos often used a heavy, irregular vibrato, while Smith's rhythms contained an uncommon explosive energy, including patterns that conveyed great excitement, as evidenced in " Black to Comm " and many other songs.

At the time, few except cancer researchers were interested in the electronic properties of conductive polymers, in theory applicable to the treatment of melanoma.

The earliest versions, however, especially those models with the Bosch K-Jetronic ( CIS ) injection system, have few electronic components and therefore can be repaired more easily provided spare parts can be found.

By 2001, few lower-end printer models came with support for PostScript, largely due to growing competition from much cheaper non-PostScript ink jet printers, and new software-based methods to render PostScript images on the computer, making them suitable for any printer ; PDF, a descendant of PostScript, provides one such method, and has largely replaced PostScript as de facto standard for electronic document distribution.

The Chemical Brothers are credited as being one of the few truly arena-sized electronic acts.

Suitable electronic circuits can switch such large voltages within a few nanoseconds, allowing the use of EOMs as fast optical switches.

Tangerine Dream's earliest concerts were visually simple by modern standards, with three men sitting motionless for hours alongside massive electronic boxes festooned with patch cords and a few flashing lights.

Electronic movements have few or no moving parts, as they use the piezoelectric effect in a tiny quartz crystal to provide a stable time base for a mostly electronic movement.

Point-to-point construction is still used to construct prototype equipment with few or heavy electronic components.

This has enabled detailed measurements of the atomic and electronic properties of single columns of atoms, and in a few cases, of single atoms.

, later in 21st century srilankan composer Dinesh Subasinghe brought few changes in to this ancient instrument, he brought adventurous and a unique style and technique to play it like a Sarangi, in year 2007 for the first time he introduced this instrument to electronic media in srilanka and in to the recording music industry and Dinesh Subasinghe launched the first audio album from thia Ancient Instrument Ravanahatha,
