Hi,
Thank you for the info.
The dlp usb solution looks like a terrific gadget, especially since
parallel ports have almost disppeared, at least on portables.
In fact, would in linux not any py software capable of dealing with a
usb connection (almost) suffice? Any further comments would be much

Hi Isaac,
I've been meaning to get into robot building too. After much
consideration I decided to go the Lego Mindstorms route. I actually
figured it was a Pythonic way to go. "Pythonic" meaning finding
