I like that. I used to keep track of ways to dual-boot Linux and DOS/W9x and never could pull the trigger until NT6 and Grub1 reached enough maturity to make it actually seem like I could achieve it. I guess I waited about 10 years :\ One weekend long ago I designed, built, and deployed a high-precision electronic temperature controller to replace a mercury-containing unit which was originally included with laboratory reference instrumentation. Before there was a commercial all-electronic alternative to the originals. Using only parts that could be bought at Radio Shack at the time :) There was no spite involved :) Nobody cares about this kind of days' work. Personal pride should be rewarding enough. I had no idea if it was going to be possible until I was done anyway :\ Plus I had bigger fish to fry that had already been proven possible, even though the hard work needed was years, not a weekend, and odds of success were still much lower than an iffy new circuit.
