Irony is: folks bashing Microsoft and Windows CE, and then saying Don't be rude. Let's be clear - Windows CE is the base operating system on any Pocket PC device (iPaq, etc.), but PocketPC is far more than simply Windows CE. Windows CE, by itself, is pretty stable. Put some crappy applications

Les, who cuts cores for the big Genie and the LT/S, sent me a set of his proprietary cores to try out. Having nothing going on the workbench at the time, I bagged the wing and mounted it on an LT/S fuse I'd built with a saddle to fit it. Being proprietary I can only tell you that compared to the
