UPEW 2009 was a blast, and Morpheus is here!

June 30th, 2009

I went to UPEW 2009 and had a blast… and finally got to spill my guts about my new Morpheus line of Propeller boards.

Parallax was incredibly nice and generous, I got to meet many of the Parallax folks I’ve corresponded with here - Chip, Ken, Dave, Jeff, Beau, as well as many I have not such as Chuck and too many others to remember. Everyone was extremely nice and Parallax was generous to a fault - they gave away a ton of goodies, everyone got a USB ProtoBoard with some extras, I even got some extra stuff :-)

OBC, Parallax, and everyone who helped them did a fantastic job - and they also tried to stuff us with sandwiches, burgers, hotdogs, cake, cookies, chips, and more - and we were practically drowning in bottled water, coffee, tea and pop.

Chip’s speech synthesis demo had a spooky good breathing section - the rest was good too, but the breathing would be right at home in horror flicks!

Michael (mpark) blew me and everyone away by announcing and open sourcing a Spin compiler - that runs on a Propeller with an SD card - I can’t wait to play with it, and you can bet that Largos will support it.

The other demos were great too.
