The Mesa 7i43 is similar to the Pluto-P (ie, FPGA with EPP), but slightly more expensive and slightly more capable. It's been working well for me once I got a good EPP cable. I dont think it's been widely deployed yet, so reliablity figures are not really available. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky Computer Science for life, that's my direction Instead of b-balls, my homies throw exceptions -- MC Plus+ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
