Sure seems to be a lot of good geeking going on lately there in terms of overclocking CPUs and video cards and all that great (...) (26 years ago, 19-Jan-99, to lugnet.admin.general)

It's the conclusion that I have trouble making the quantum-leap to. :) OK, so the robotics ng has a different character or flavor or group-behavior than other groups...I grok that.
