My Gumstix Config

I have a gumstix connex 400-xm with a Robostix on the bottom and netCF connected to the top.
This gives me ethernet access via the netCF and an Atmel microcontroller on the bottom to play with.
The Robostix is useful as all the pins from the atmel micrcontroller are brough out to pin headers the board.
