You wish you had a pair of these.
They arrived in the mail yesterday, and they are the best things ever.
I’m sorry, I wanted to say something more meaningful — more eloquent — both nothing comes to mind. They are the best things ever.

BX-01 Mk.I on the left (shoddy photo), and a cleaner shot of the revised and improved Mk.II on the right.
And that’s pretty much my plans for 2010 right there. This is the first of hopefully many modular test and prototyping boards. This one provides simple I/O — yes, simple, despite the tangled myriad of wires sprouting out of its frame. BX-02 will likely be a control board with TTL ICs to provide a cleaner interface for large projects.
If I ever become some kind of mad scientist — complete with evil lair and henchmen — I fully intend to include this board at some central location in my world-crushing doomsday device, purely as a homage to my humble beginnings.
That, and I think it’d be kinda funny.
