...that looks very cool.
I think Paul makes a good point (as usual). But I would still like to
see what the creative spirit of open sorcerers might produce when they
apply themselves to hardware. Granted, it does seem like hardware is
sacred teritory in the sense that it is one of the few potentially
profitable arenas left. But I don't think that means people should be
discouraged from coming up with new stuff, whether soft or hard. You
never know what might come of a project that is not motivated by the
bottom line... just my $0.02.
