Re: Nearly Officially Official: cRIO Control System To Be Reused

I came from a "rich" team and then mentored a "poor" team. As a rich team, it was really nice to have all sorts of old robots kicking around. We used them for demos, training, you name it. As a poor team, we really could have better used the money elsewhere.

I hope what this means is that poor teams no longer have to shell out the cash for a system they already have. This could help with the retention problem.

On the other hand, I also hope there is a way for rich teams to buy extras. I'd like it even more if those purchases helped to subsidize the less fortunate teams.
