Ugly is in the eyes of the beholder.

Folks, this is what you will have to work with. Get over it.

With all the whining about IFI and KwikByte, you'd think we should revert to timing motors and cam-operated sequence switches for goodness sake. Who needs a CPU?

Sure, IFI was wunnerful and all, but it's can't cast a shadow on the cRio for versatility and power and ribustness and... well, almost everything but weight. Oh, don't get me wrong - The IFI team was just great, but how many of you still use DOS on your x86??

If the technology is overwhelming, try FTC. <sheesh>. (In other words: Who wants some lemonade?)
