Yes and yes.

And I'm a little annoyed that trashcade didn't make it in the Hall of Fame!

btw, trashcade did inspire almost all the modular cabs around here.  Its ability to just stack the boxes.

Trashcade in the hall of fame? it was highly amusing and very inovative. I don't think I would display it though.

People forget why trashcade was made. It served a very valuable purpose. It was a mockup to verify it was sized appropriatly.

So it probably does deserve recognition as a technique that others might want to emulate to avoid the dreaded "boat too big to get out of garage" problem.

2 years....droppin' the deuce.....coincidence?  I think NOT!  I bet you're on the verge of some breakthrough the likes of which will knock the socks off of us!  I just hope you don't get so frustrated that you flush all your research down the crapper! ;D

Actually, I had a toiletcade 5 years ago. Pentium 166 flatscreen touchscreen system on a pole, sat in the bathroom in front of the toilet, had solitaire and some other junk on it.
Acceptance of Zen philosophy is marred slightly by the nagging thought that if all things are interconnected, then all things must be in some way involved with Pauly Shore.

Now that, my friend, is inspiring.  ;)
