Thanks, I had a brief look at the video (but gotta save on bandwidth). With only a number of days to go before the campaign closes, I hope the project gets to see the light of day (true, I missed the light of day working :))
@Paul - hope you're feeling better and have a full recovery. Liked the write up. (It's funny that people argue the things that don't matter like easy measurables[1] like MHz and GHz, but miss the important things. (Of course, this is still a difficult thing to argue with most folk as they might not be the kinds of people who buy stuff, develop an unmet need in a particular product (whether a camera, watch or whatever)).
Russell... [1] Actually, if I could remember the source of the quote I'd provide it, but the whole point has a related idea that's embedded in maths (and therefore made its way into computing): reduce the problem and solve a simpler problem instead. Like, if someone asks you, how are you? That's a really difficult question, and sure you could write a whole manual about how to ask and then answer that question. But you could instead decide the answer based on whether you had a good coffee or whether or not it's Monday, etc. (In so doing, you've just solved/picked a different problem answer). Like the quote: "Dealing with failure is easy: Work hard to improve. Success is also easy to handle: You've solved the wrong problem. Work hard to improve." (Alan Perlis)
