My real heart's desire is, ironically, a hardware/software project, to
put together a package of an ARM-based embedded computer with Linux,
booting right into uQLx, so that it is basically a QL. Getting it so
it can fit inside a QL case with PSU and a couple of laptop SATA HDs
or compact flash cards
Far too costly - it will cost you and 'ARM' and a leg. ;-)
(Sorry, couldn't resist!)
Ah that reminds me of a group of people standing around a QLer in
Eindhoven showing off his digital camera, in the very early days of
these. I said "That must have cost you an arm and a leg" - innocently I
assure you.
He had physical problems and very little use of his arms and hands.
Fortunately he spoke little English and did not understand, but he must
have thought I made a good joke, from the laughter around (8-)#
