I would appreciate any linux programming resources, or code for gumstixs, but more than anything I would like any comments on gumsitx, or any other systems you've used.

I know someone will ask so I'll say now. I plan to use the gumstix in a position tracking system, and poisably connect a web cam to replace the $&%#$^ CUMCam. I also want to be able to save a record of all inputs, motor outputs, and any other data I can so I can replay a match virtually to help identify problems.

EDIT: After looking through the gumstix models I'm leaning towards a Waysmall due to the serial ports.
Thanks,

Eric and all;
Microsoft has intro'd their robotics suite which drew dubious comments in previous threads. However I have read the interviews in several pubs and actually downloaded the August edition to play with. It would seem to me if this product is successful then the gumstix/winCE/VS2005( or facimile of the same) environment could be in the future of at least FRC. I would not be supprised if the DVD of the Robotic Studio ends up in the KOP for 2007. First's close ties with MIT would predict that some sort of global robotics software environment will eventually become part of the KOP of the near future. LRU.
