Wow. Every single layer is another chance for things to go wrong.


That sounds familiar..


Thanks for posting this. For years I used to check Armadillo every Monday morning for updates, but I haven't recently because JC's gotten more sporadic with updates. I would have missed this one for weeks!

Good to know what they're up to.


Anyone have details about the kind of customers he mentions having lined up? Imagination runs wild...


bookmarked for later reading. So far the introduction smacks of rocket science fun, look forward to the details. Couldn't help but admire the authors view on his gaming company sale, as extra resources for his real passion ;)
