Re: Future use of cRIO?
Die-cast aluminum sounds much more appropriate. I knew the side-car and other external modules were quickly made prototypes, so I wasn't counting on anything final with those. I believe I was thinking earlier die-cast, but forgot the term and just said cast iron, but I did believe it was steel, but I guess it would be heavier than it currently is.

Again I'm very excited about the new control system, and I actually installed LabView 8.0 on my laptop today from the 2005 KOP (or maybe 2006), and was able to get a few things working. I'm going to look at it more this summer when I have more spare time.
