PS. I have a patriot scientific PSC1000 eval board here,
    it's a 100Mhz RISC CPU for <$10 in volume that has
    low power consumption, can address 4GB of memory and
    can run Java natively, also C and FORTH. I think the

expert myself, I wouldn't know how to design a new board either, but I
would be first in line to buy a board based on this chip.

Dave, I'm looking seriously at the Linx HP eval kit. Please let me know how yours works out, and any tips on installation to the handy board would be greatly appreciated. Also, what if I wanted to put HP RX/TX on two robots plus host computer, I (...) (26 years ago, 20-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
