Re: Competing in a Regional Soon ? - Watch out

To reply to both pilleya and Pretzel:

Due to funding constraints (everything purchased has to go through multiple channels of approval), we've opted to use my personal laptop as the Driver Station console. Our only other option is the Classmates provided in the KOP of our Rookie year, and on our DS console, I'd like more than 2 pixels on the screen to work with. If at all possible, I'd prefer to avoid attaching velcro to my personal computer, but I guess that's just me being anal.

Custom driver station consoles are a solution, yes, but for many teams, they are time crunched enough just getting the robot finished before competition, let alone extra parts like a driver station console.
