I think it should be only remote controlled system where actual data flow doesn't go through the host computer. Modular system with it's own bus. Something like VME & RACEway. The bus could be firewire. I'd like to be able to do beamforming for N inputs in DSP and feed that beam output to the PC. > Yup, but I would put those in a separate farm, not in the I/O.

Usually with 256 kB - 2 MB of SRAM memory. - Jussi Laako -- PGP key fingerprint: 161D 6FED 6A92 39E2 EB5B 39DD A4DE 63EB C216 1E4B Available at PGP keyservers
