- Enough sitting by quietly! It's time to add my two cents.
-
- I agree whole heartedly with Fred. I'm very new to robotics. In fact, I haven't
- really started yet. I've been technically intertested for many years but felt
- the experimental kits were either too expensive or too mucha toy. I'm hoping
- my purchase of the miniboard kit will get me started with a real project.
-
- I wouldn't know about it at all if it wasn't for the "noise" on the net.
-
- There seems to be very little real robot-industry info sharing going on
- here. So it makes good sense to use some of this bandwidth for promoting
- and encouraging the hobby/industry.

- ** Start sermon, with flames on low **
-
- And don't be so hard on people who are trying to do you a favor. The one thing
- that bothers me most about Usenet is how people take advantage of "freedom of
- speech" and seem so eager to flame with the slightest provocation. It's OK
- to bitch when, but don't be destructive.
-
- ** End sermon, let the all-expected flames begin **
