Some where in your system on this blog near the end you have a very strong 60 ~ hum; if that is what you have down under.

Do you think the axon 2 from society of robots is outdated?

why do you need to bang your head into the flying pig?

ha ha... good stuff... I want a pig like that..

You are hilarious. I learn a lot from your blog. Thank you.

I'm sorry, but I just can't share the enthusiasm about Microchip here. There's a bunch of repeated marketspeak from them; for instance, people were worried the compiler would be killed off, and it WAS. For everything but Microchip's devices. That's at least 7 architectures down the drain.
The claim that Microchip would be the only microcontroller maker making a profit also sounds hollow; Cypress, for one, probably disagrees. You'll find their chips in tons of USB devices, for instance.

LOWER THE VIDEO QUALITY, it takes longer to load the video. May be YouTube is slow today but really don't need even this resolution.

Been wondering how the microcontroller industry's doing since the crisis. I see not too well.
Where can I buy a Damocles the flying pig of my own??!!

you have a gigantic sense of humor :D
btw, why did you bought a sanyo cam? There are many other brands better than sanyo... canon, sony, etc...

Yeah, for triple the price. Try finding a HD H264 SD card cam with external mic input and good opics for anywhere near the street price of the Sanyo Xacti...
The optical performance of the Sanyo is as good as the top names three times it's price.
