agreed IMHO my hardware skills leave much to be desired and well
i personally like the idea of as little mucking around with the hardware
as possible. seems to me that if they named a 'reasonable price' most
likely they would win. would like to see a simular device or same that
a project revolves around as a "look at this" it would be real attractive
to people that want to see something other than that old dusty 486 with
8 meg of ram for the front office. well on the wish it was less hassle to
get list..
