we post our pictures on our website(www.12voltbolt.com) we have our own server and everything so its not a big deal...

and youtube for our videos...

oh by the way RC..does the CAD software in the kit require a "good" computer? or will it run on just a normal desktop? i have an HP7550(the lake county school system sell thier previous years computers to the public, as they get new replacement ones each year)

I know that I was able to run Inventor '06 (or whatever the version was that year) on a 3-year-old ex-Lockheed laptop. Ran it the next year too, and had no problems that I know about.

If you visit the Autodesk page about system requirements you will be able to find specs. Most current computers should be able to run Inventor well.

Great looking bot btw. This really does look like a big leap in robot quality for your team. Awesome work. Just get us some vids and close up pics!

thanks

since 2005 we've never really had a strictly offensive robot, designing more for durability, but we've always been competative(making the regional finals every year, escpecially 2006, when we had to remove our ground harvester because we were like 20 pounds over weight and still ended up placing 4th)

I REALLY like the co-operation between teams in First(i think its why First is growing so fast)

some pics are already on the website, but we add them regularly...

videos will come shortly, in the next day or two(hopefully)

i checked the autodesk site, it'll run on mine

Great News, and I am loving this co-operation between teams also. Teams are helping each other more it seems this year or maybe its more outspoken. Btw, loving your guys bot.

Cool, the CAD software can run on a pretty low end computer. If you post up the processor and the graphics card I can tell you for sure. Also more ram the better. If the comp doesn't come with enough you can upgrade pretty easily and cheaply.
