would you need all that? following the Styx-on-a-Brick example (Lego Mindstorms), all you need is something with enough cpu to talk 9p to export a name space from the gizmo. but then, with all those 486 and pentium pc's being discarded, why not get that kit#74 from kitsrus.com and hook it up to an old pc running plan9, and a little elbow grease and call it done?
