Completely driverless would take tons of code, but I guess it would work.
maybe on an $8 8515...

Neither do I.  I just took a test today that I hadn't studied for at all.  :)

I might go to UAF...They have a cray and 4 T1s.  Fine with me.  :)

Of course your college CMU probably has dual fiber, but 4 T1s is good for
Fairbanks!  :)

The AK pipeline has OC48 running parallel with it.  Those control modules
sure take lots of bandwidth!  :)
