Re: NI Week Athena Announcement and Q&A Panel

Thanks Greg, I like the idea of threaded inserts on the bottom but I'm worried that they'll be easily be stripped out by eager freshmen. The zip tie holders seem like a reasonable idea.

Also what is the idea behind the threaded inserts on the top near the USB ports?

Why are the reset and user buttons on the side of the device? Seems like they could be hard to reach once it is mounted in the robot.

That's it for now.
I was just wondering about this my self.
