Some modules plonked in to be sure it all fits elegantly, space for 1U up top for a gooseneck light and some switching... I have some more Doepfer modules in the UK and some spare PayPal to spend on fun stuff. It's a box I can use that does not necessarily need a computer to make some noises when I don't feel like looking at a screen.

Offset spacers and fixed to case... With enough room underneath for some led lighting to be fitted...ponies to soon become glow ponies

A poet cannot lie. Must tell the fact
that people go, in pain, and cannot stay.
Last month, last week, last hour of last day.
He took my hand. And my voice might have cracked

but his did not. A sort of madcap grace
he had. We used to think it was the drink.
He'd laugh, be serious, dance on the brink
of parapets. No mask behind his face.

He wrote, once, of a gentle alien spy
observing, liking. Someday going back.
That wasn't him. He has no chance to pack
some souvenirs. He won't leave, he will die.

Cheeks slightly gaunt, his shy sardonic smile
haunts, like his rich sad sweet roccoco style.

Step one: go to Hasbro's website and take a "free to print out and colour in 'printable' " of the Mane 6 ponies... Turn file from a (protected) PDF into an Encapsulated postscript file. Take file to local hackerspace -- in this case the wonderful wonderful treasure trove of Seattle's metrixcreatespace.com

  • Tue, 14:15: Today would be going better if it had already included coffee
  • Tue, 14:25: Thorstein Heins in relaxed and wisecracking mood; happiest and most outgoing we've ever seen him on stage
  • Tue, 14:29: referring to BB10 dev cycle as "just two years" is one of those looking back fondly on adversity things you can only do if things going well
  • Tue, 14:32: excited horsten Heins sounding a tiny bit like Barney from How I Met Your Mother; our keyboard is *legendary*

  • Tue, 15:06: the concept of BES 10 is clear & simple; getting BES 10 up & running is still rather less so. great for Blackberry partners selling support
  • Tue, 15:15: what? secure workspace for iOS & Android is STILL in beta? launches this summer. I expected this sooner, though BBL never said so #bblive
