It would also make sense, if you can, to keep one machine up and running for demos this year.

Jason

We are keeping one up and running to teach future members and programmers. Frankly, we only have room for one complete bot. I'm using parts from '04 and '05, even some '03 stuff, I talking about things that almost had to be throw away if not for interested students. But you are right Jason, until we get the new stuff up and running, we are definatly keeping a complete '08 control panel around.
