| | 1Wire vs I2C
|
|
(...) I2C is much faster (100 Kbit I2C is the slowest, vs 14 Kbit 1Wire), more reliable, but much shorter distance. Newer I2C can be 1 Mbit or more. (...) 1Wire will never do 115 kbits reliably. The 1Wire overdrive option is not reliable and few (...) (22 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) The 4/3 is the aspect ratio of the POV generated rendering (matches 800x600, 1024x768, 1600x1200 etc.). If you for some reason want POV to do a high, narrow (or low, long), rendering this factor has to be changed. It's often easier to do a (...) (22 years ago, 26-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

This is probably a question for Jake, but there may be other sources of info. How did 4679 come to be?
