No WAY. Shut UP. THAT cheap?

5 for i=1 to 400
10 print "Thank you."
15 next i

How on Earth can you AFFORD that?

> You send all the specs, and draw a picture of where you want them.

Define "them". Do you mean sensor modules, etc? And what exactly does "base"
mean? Is it just the wheeled plastic tower, or does it already have motors
and such? Can I see a picture to give me a general idea of what I have to
work with?

I guess you mean sensor data ports and such. Yeah. Basically, I'll need a
whole bunch of 3-pin connectors for daughterboards: middle is sink, left is
for State1 or Open, right is State2 or Closed. Of course, I might need some
AT connectors for advanced data and such. I'll go into more detail in the
full blueprint.

I assume you mean the base platform upon which everything stands?

No problem. I need to fix up the digicam, but I can use a friend's in the
meantime.
Can you give me the exact location of this newsgroup?

I participate in knowledge bases a lot. I can do that.

Do you have a website I can browse around on?

I appreciate your help.
