right, but with my corrected statement of a 4 motor walker, then the chip
count could be as low as 2 chips

to get multiple bicores on one chip or the regular old single bicore?

No, ian's not dead. He's just really busy. I think he's even starting to
look at colleges or somthing. I think he's in junior year, (correct me if
I'm wrong) that's a really busy time. And he's on the road a bunch doing
BEAM stuff. Just a weekend or so ago he was down at MIT in boston on a tour.
He's around, you should see him at the western canadian games.

Ok I honestly think Ian's dead. He's been gone for a
couple of months with out a single peep. SO ARE U OUT
THERE IAN!!!!!!????????
