Wow, Dex, sounds like lofty ideals in regards to the hardware in particular.
Yea, I am holding my breath for desktop manufacturing, but I still have 
trouble
believing that anyone would leave new HW standards unpatented!  Free 
licensing
sounds much more reasonable to me.  Oh, and lets PLEASE rename threads 
as per
topic.  I personally think this thread should move to another list 
altogether!
What was that list we spawned a while back? advocacy? activism? 
alter-abled-threads?
Well, I wanted to reflect that this ("my") thread has grown into a 
nearly perfect
example of our LUG... our variety, which can be a strength if we all 
keep some
perspective.  Well, thank you all for your feedback.  I am curious to 
check out some
of the nifty technodepots in our area that I was not familiar with.
