Re: Co-Processor?

I must say, I don't really see a reason to install a Co-processor,
other than the great (HUGE) educational experience the team could experience.

or, for systems with very little information exchange, such as the StanGPS,
which answers a simple query and returns a simple solution.
"A?" -"0x10 !"


BUT
1) this can be done, and will be educationally-effective only to mature, technically knowledgeable team members.
2 )I wouldn't use such a systems if the entire operation depends on it,
and 3)there are many rules and restrictions around such things.
I assume new teams would want to "keep it simple, stupid" =],
as they fear that even a simple malfunction would spoil their chance to win the regional.


at the bottom line:
I hope I could convince the team to make a commitment to such a responsibility =]

just my 3.50$ ("tree-fidy!")
