Much progress occured this weekend. The bot is assembled, and the chest plate is manufactured. Arms are attached, and the servos installed too. I just need to finish the forearms.

I received my new Gumstix board this morning too. I have already started customizing it. I need to build a cross compiler suite still though. I am downloading the gumstix toolchain as I write this, but I doubt that it will work on Windows XP without extensive modification (even under cygwin).

At least I have a working Linux laptop at home. ;)
