Actually, I offered to do a Pascal and/or Kylix presentation but: a.) I only heard interest vocalized from 2 or 3 people. b.) I odn't have the best equipment to present on at this point. c.) The robot stuff is more interesting to me since I already know pascal and kylix. ;) -- noah silva On Tue, 2002-07-02 at 17:42, Darxus@chaosreigns.com wrote: > I believe this is the only standing offer we have for a full length > presentation tomorrow, and it sounds interesting to me. > > ----- Forwarded message from "Michael F.
