This year's system was more like having to load up half of the Windows XP operating system (or OSX, for you Mac dudes) before you could really use the computer--and that's annoying, isn't it?
Let me clarify the 883 thing. No, they're not legal, and we do not use them on competition bots, but all of our projects use 883's and we often swap out 884's from old competition bots for 883's so we have some spares.

I think we have been given amazing technology and a great opportunity to work with it. I have not complained a bit and I love the change.
