Subject: [alt-beam] BEAM Info Center?


Ahoy, all!
I was just wondering (yeah, this is relevant):
What do you think about a small, free (or at least under $5) info center
sort of thing that had all sorts of info about BEAM stuff, tutorials,
schematics, pictures, maybe movies of bots in action and definitions?
Sort of like a website dedicated to BEAM, but more compact, possibly more
info, and a neat-o interface.
I'd have to check if this would violate any restrictions with Mark Tilden
and all, and at least at first it would be Mac-only (the app I use to make
this sort of stuff is Mac only, and though you can get a program that will
make a copy of it for PCs, I don't know how much it would cost), but if
you're interested, let me know, off the list, so I can see how much demand
there is for this.
It should work on any Mac, as far as I know.
Color is preferable.
Signing off,
Rob Rix

P.S. If you want me to do this, please send some pictures of bots!
Make sure that all together they're under a hundred kilobytes though,
please, because my dad would get angry if I was getting a few 16 meg
files...
