MIT (yes, that MIT) serves the list, I just archive it and built the FAQ site with content and help from list members (e.g. David Carey). And 3 time= s so far, I sell a product some one on the list develops and doesn't want to sell themselves. Ashley Roll's little RS232 to TTL converter in a DB9 backshell, Roman Blacks Linistepper and SLAm Stepper motor drivers.=20 The server hosts the site ( http://piclist.com ) , the archive ( http://www.piclist.com/techref/postbot.asp ) , the FAQ (http://www.piclist.com/techref/microchip/index.htm ), and the little store (http://www.piclist.com/techref/ecomprice.asp ). And it does it on a M$ server for a lot of reasons.=20 -- James Newton 1-970-462-7764=20 -----Original Message----- From: piclist-bounces@mit.edu [mailto:piclist-bounces@mit.edu] On Behalf Of David Sent: Saturday, February 18, 2012 03:34 To: Microcontroller discussion list - Public.

That's the kind of box I'd virtualise a whole bunch of servers (Windows and Linux) on.
