<snip excellent descriptions>

OK...I'm officially jelous.  I guess that's what I get for living in a
land-locked state like Kansas.  We never have any of the good conventions
locally :<

Yeah, at Microsoft, I think they burn your eyes out if you ever even glance
at GPL'd code ;-)

I like the Power-PC based stuff.  If (more like when) the company I'm
currently working for craters, I'm thinking about designing/building a PPC
based embedded system that would run LEAF (or some variant).  I've currently
got a guy interested in some web-enabled data-loggers, with the potential to
possibly move up into PLC's eventually.  I'm kind of partial to the IBM 4xx
series, myself (rather than the Motorola 8xxx), but their stuff still looked
neat.

I'm still looking at ways to make a solid-state flash disk for "everyman"
that would let you do away with floppies.  Using a CD-Rom and putting a
flash on a NIC boot-prom socket should work, I just never seem to find the
time to do development stuff anymore...

Glad you all got a chance to hook up, and appreciate the reports...maybe
I'll get out to the west cost again someday.  You never know...if I really
get it together, I may even find the time to build another BattleBot and
find myself in San Francisco again.  Mike helped me a lot the last time I
was out there...I've got some team photos of the two of us...I'll have to
scan them and get them online.  You can see a tiny version at the
battle-bots site (Mike's on the left, and I'm on the right):
