Hey, all that junk in the background looks familiar!
If there are any old scanners in that pile, the flourescent tubes make
great control board lighting! (If you mount your controls on clear Lexan, it give it that Star Trek feel
) Most of the time, you can even scavenge the inverters to run the lights directly from 12v.
Oh, by the way, nice goal.

If it's falling apart it's a mechanical problem. If it's spewing smoke it's a electrical problem.
If it's rampaging around destroying things it's a programming problem.
