Hi folks
        I hope this is not wasting everybody's time. I have a couple of
questions mainly where are the FAQ's for this subject kept? The second
one is concerning some files I have seen at an FTP site listed here
They all seem to be in postscript format. I unfortunately am running from 
a dos box so I was wondering if there are any Dos based postscript tools
ie viewers etc. Just one other point I am enquiring about the Miniboard
I have been told that this is an ideal starting point for robotic control
but what I was wondering was can you link more than one miniboard together
and if so how? The sort of robot I am attempting to build is the basic 
wheeled explorer type, but I would like to be able to more ram on the 
robot to store details about the world it is exploring. Is this feasible
or will you need something heavier duty. I have heard of the 6.270 board
and I was wondering what that is? Sorry if these questions are real newbie 
stuff to you all but they would help me alot
        Thanks in advance
