Actually, remember that they DIDN'T MAKE $599 per unit, because the cost of
production was probably at least $250-350. Then they didn't directly sell
them to end users, but to resellers, for about a $100 max profit... it adds
up. Unless you bought it directly from RS, where I guess you made their
lying pockets bigger.
    Actually, if I were in your posistion, I'd be mad that I didn't put more
bugs in!!! Just be glad that you eventually got some decent jobs, and
credit for your work. I'm sure that bigger things have happened in world
history, but I can't name any at the moment.
    Don't worry, I think that all of us give you credit for your work.
    (Mostly to Sam Ismail): Is there going to be a VCF Journal or something
that we can buy? Unfortuanately, I'll be in Guyana in school at the time in
question... kinda hard to go 4,000 away from class.
    Ciao,
