You really want that Mac don't you? :-)

Anyhow what do you think of it so far? I wanted to order one, however money ran out, also the people here in Wpg don't seem to be aware that such a thing exists.

For example how hard would it be to do an interrupt driven software-emulated serial port with 4x RX sampling at 9600 baud (asyncronous NRZ) and the corresponding TX routine? I'm trying to break the $1 / port price limit and was thinking a DSP might just do it. What do you think?

Best wishes with your contest!
