OOPS! (I was thinking that was a little fast)

Oh well you will still need the RTG if you want to use the rover when its in the dark phase for the area it is in.
So what about sterilization? Wouldnt an autoclave toast that little chip. I guess there is chemical sterilization too. Or would this only be used in disposeable items?
Hmmm.. Dont think they will go with rounded edges like the mockups. Betting they will keep the same dimensions as the current nano. Just hope they drop the pastels and I am sure they will have black. After all First there was the black nano, then black ipod, and finally a black macbook. Cant imagine they would go back.
OK, Now thats just creepy...
EMC is a pain in the royal butt. A nightmare to setup and not that fun in general. Two best options are TurboCNC under DOS and Mach (http://www.artofcnc.com) Mach has its own drivers for the parallel port so you dont encounter the problems with other software running under windows and they have free version limited to running something like 1000 lines of code.

I have a harbor freight micro mill that I converted to CNC and am now working a a 4'x8'x16"Z mill.

Must have been listening to AC/DC!
Ozone pollution from electric cars? Hows that? These motors dont run at near high enough voltage to get corona discharge and there is no UV light involved, so how can there be Ozone?
Time to make a mu-metal wallet...
8: Isnt the symbol for Unobtanium on the Periodic Table "Bs"?
Another cheape alternative to the Panasonic projector is the InFocus sp-5000. It does not have the high contrast ratio of the panasonic but for $600 less including a 76" screen its a heck of a deal. Still 1280*720 at 1100lumens 1:1200 CR it makes a great picture. I have hanging from a aluminum shelf permanently connected to my old MacMini with DVI and connected to my Onkyo 7.1 reciever via component. Beleieve me, no one has ever complained about the picture.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
