wow... is it up and running?... i never noticed it there.... but i went 
about 2 years ago.... thats a good enough excuse as any to visit - along 
with sampling their enigma machines again (its an enigma on the front 
page of irixx.org)

i suppose that brings us vaguely back on topic... oh to hell with it.

i wanna do one of those things - line printer or dotmatrix - and then 
control it via xtend or something on my linux box.... any ideas?
