The website seems to make you think CF is better...

The nice thing about CF is that it's pretty damn cheap (you can get a
512M card from CostCo.com for $50). Cheaper & faster than multimedia

have, using a $5 adaptor (al
Cool!! I've used the Pandora plugin for the GiMP before, to stitch up

reasonably well: it did not take much CPU time, but it was a

Haven't heard of such in relation to OCF. Elder passes with 20+ years at
the Faire, yes, and you need be over I forget what age, prolly 65, but

I d kind of like to see if I could do an SD/MMC version.
But i think on the first pass I'll go with the predefined version

There are several out there. I've not been through this process yet.
The best looking guys I've found so far are these guys:

http://www.expresspcb.com/
All of these are basically 1 or 2 layer boards with low turn around
time.
But I need to get ahold of a small bottle of flux.
I like to use no-corode solder flux available at most hardware stores in a
can~1.5"dia
That would also mean we could get real circuit boards spun
for us rather than using bread boards.
Who is your source of circuit boards ? please
I think so. I can propably host, but we may need another table or
something to work on depending on how many people end up participating.

Count me in on this one - in fact I picked up a surplus Altoids at the radio
club meeting last week :) Hey Jim, let me know what's up for the weekend, if
you want to get together about getting that Mandrake 9.1 fixed on my laptop.

does a "golden age passport" qulify ? for Village meetings, they seem to
have settled in the old Whittaker
School, still on the Second Wednesday of each month.Once you attend two
meetings and you're qualified as current Villagers, what organization
you represent becomes less important, I imagine.

I bet that there are others in corvallis and such that might join

You're still considered a Villager if you've had a camping pass in the
last year or if you've had one in two of the last four years. You and
Larry likely qualify under that. My memory's not so sure about Pat,
though, but I think it

Do you have one of those tiny connectors used on the little wifi modules? I
