    Baggers,

    Thanks for posting that! I'd never seen his show before, but it's well-produced and quite entertaining. 'Great to see the Prop getting such nice coverage!

    Did anyone else notice the Escher print on the wall?

    Element14 is the silly name for a Farnell customer community, BTW. Farnell sells Arduinos and Propeller chips, amongst lots of other stuff.

    Thanks for posting this and I have never seen his show as well. I also like his CNC router.

    Me neither. He's got a great persona, and he likes Props! I suspect he and Jeri know one another well enough for that poster to not be a problem. After all, it's not easy competing with "fat man and circuit girl", LOL!!

    There have been friendly jabs between Ben and Jeri since the pinball competition last year.

    I suspect it's all in fun.

    Holy LOL.

    I just got done watching the whole thing. While Ben promoting his sponsors Ardunio board, he actually used the Propeller to do all the work. :) Yup. We know which processor has the real power. :)

    I use a cable-based internet provider, so download speed varies all over the place, depending on overall load. For online videos, I usually just pause them and go do something else until the whole thing has loaded. That way, I can watch without interruption. It also helps to turn off HD if that option is enabled.

    I came across this...and I had been discussing with a buddy about how fun it would be to make a pinball machine and how the propeller could do it all.

    Then when I saw this video...and he started with Arduino I was like OMG, but still watching...then he busts out the propeller!! Ha Ha. Oh Yeah, 1 SD Card for Music...1 SD Card for Sound Effects.

    It was so funny when he had the PropTool open..full of code, and he open's up some tiny blank window.. "And this is for the Arduino...umm....<Click and Close>...ok Back to the Propeller.." LOL
