Scott, thanks for your thoughts. Embedded Linux systems are of great interest to me. With my Networking Engineering background I know that many network equip vendors are running Linux now. I've tinkered around a bit w. DDRT and OpenWRT. Robotics is also interesting as I have a background in electronics too.
I once thought about building a bunch of Linux boxes running diff distros, networking them together, and then start tinkering with all the neat apps and tech. Maybe I should do this and create a web page documenting the stuff I've done. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
