    I like how she says guyroscope. Good to see Parallax being promoted in different ways by different people!

    She was talking, but I don't remember a word she said. There was something about turtles, I think.

    She could really rattle off those parts!

    I do find it hard to believe that she learned LESS from her EE books!!

    I think I recall hearing something about ar-DOO-inno as I was scrambling to remove the DigiKey pop-up ad blocking part of her ... um ... presentation. Did she say anything else that I might have missed?

    Wait, was she at UPENE? Did I miss something? It was a big room, but I'm sure I would have noticed.

    I really think that Parallax should make that a dress policy for any future videos :smile:

    Let's see, there's Ken's PropBOE video, there Chris Savage's relay board video, there are a couple by JonnyMac.....I'm still voting for business casual when it comes to the Parallax official videos! :0)

    :lol::lol::lol: don't get me wrong those guys probably have great physiques I just think the girls should make more videos, after all we can't let the men dominate can we

    I mean is it going to have to take a forum vote to get Parallax to change their policy?
    :tongue:

    I think they should wear what they feel comfortable wearing. "Lacey" wears what she feels is comfortable, and what fits the style that she is looking for. Asking Parallax women to do the same for your entertainment isn't the business that Parallax is in.
