(...) That's one thing that is still very much in question. We had to pick some number, and 1 bps seemed like a place to start. All the contraption modules I've seen so far run pretty close to that speed. It's hard to see in this picture, but the (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jan-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) From our initial test, there is one thing I can tell you. It doesn't really have to be a "display". We sat there and watched it run (on and off) for about 7 hours, and we didn't get tired of watching it. It's not like watching an event over (...)

(...) If you promise to build more, I will lend you as many RCXes as you want. (Well, up to 3) That offer stands for everyone here. God only knows I don't do anything with them, except for douse them with milk. Calum (20 years ago, 11-Jan-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
